Ingredients:
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 large egg yolks
2 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon flour
Instructions (for vanilla cream):
1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, scald milk and cream by bringing it just to a boil. Remove from heat.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolks and sugar until light and fluffy. About 2 minutes. Add flour and continue mixing until smooth.
3. Slowly pour the hot milk mixture, one tablespoon at a time into the egg mixture (to temper the eggs, otherwise you'll end up with scrambled eggs). Whisk until smooth and completely free of lumps. 2-3 minutes.
4. Return mixture to the saucepan, and place over medium heat, bring mixture to a boil whisking constantly and cook for another 2 minutes. Add vanilla then whisk to incorporate and remove from heat immediately.
5. Transfer the pastry cream to a bowl. Place a sheet of plastic wrap directly on top of the pastry cream to prevent skin from forming. Make sure there are no air pockets.
6. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Take a layer of crepe, and put on flat surface.
