• Ingredients
   2  whole eggs and 4 eggs yolks.
  1/2 cup sugar
  1/1/2 cup whole milk ( scalded)
  2 tsp.. pure vanilla
  Add eggs to a sauce pan and with a whisk beat eggs well. add sugar and beat.
  Add milk to a smaller sauce pan and when you see bubbles around  a round the sides of pan take off.
   Add 1 table spoon of the milk to eggs mixture and while mixing add a little more milk while stirring,  add milk and stir well ( don’t want to scramble those eggs.)   boil a few inches of water about 3 to 4 inches in a larger pan or use double boiler.
  Stir  often ( only takes about 10 to 15  min. to cook) when  you raise the spoon and the spoon is coated and stays on. take off and pour in cold bowl and add vanilla and stir well.  Set in refrigerator until cold and ready to serve. This will make enough for 3 to 4 serving. Double for a quart.  This is also good for a base for ice cream.  I like to add  whip cream and freeze so good, you would not believe.
