Make the Custard
In a saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it begins to steam. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, and vanilla until well combined. Gradually stir in the hot milk into the egg mixture to temper it. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly until it thickens. Remove from heat and let cool.
