Prepare the Pastry Cream
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the milk and vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, and cornstarch. Gradually pour the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly. Return to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring until thickened. Remove from heat and let it cool.
