Directions

  1. Make vanilla sauce: in a small saucepan, over direct heat bring 1 cup milk with cream and ½ teaspoon vanilla to boiling; just until bubbles form around edge.

Remove from heat. In the top of a double boiler, with an electric mixer at medium speed, beat 4 egg yolks until thick.

  1. Gradually beat in ½ cup sugar, beating until soft peaks form when beaters are raised.

Add hot milk mixture. Place over hot water (water in the lower part of the double boiler should not touch the upper part).

Cook, stirring until coating forms on metal spoon about 10 to 15 minutes.

  1. Pour into a bowl; place a sheet of waxed paper on the surface.

Overlap bread slices on top.
