Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1 1/4 cups milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
6 egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar

Directions:
Directions:
Heat oven to 300 degrees.
Fill a small roasting pan or a deep casserole type dish with enough water to go halfway up the sides of the pan.
Place the pan of water in the oven to heat.
In a saucepan heat the milk and cream. You want it warm, but not boiling. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl whisk together egg yolks and sugar until light and fluffy. This takes a few minutes. ( I used my whisk attachment on my kitchen aid mixer, but you can do it by hand. It will just take longer.)
Slowly add in warm milk mixture until completely combined.
Whisk in vanilla extract.
Pour mixture into 6 ounce custard cups or similar sized jars. See note below.
Carefully place filled custard cups in pan of hot water.
Cook for 30-35 minutes or until custard is set.
Serve at room temperature or chilled. Store in refrigerator.

Note: If you only have 4 ounce ramekins or jars they will work, you will just need more of them and the cooking time will need to be adjusted.

Martha Stewart’s Vanilla Custard Recipe is a classic dessert using basic ingredients. Custard is a pudding like dessert made with milk or cream, eggs and sugar. Pudding contains a thickener like cornstarch, but custard gets it thickness from eggs.
