Preheat oven to 350°F.

Put egg yolks into a large, heatproof bowl. Add the first portion of sugar and whisk until combined. Pour heavy cream into a medium saucepan

Cut vanilla bean in half. Using the tip of a knife, scrape out seeds. Drop vanilla seeds into heavy cream and whisk to combine.

Heat cream slowly until you see bubbles forming around the edge of the saucepan. Remove from heat.
5

Slowly pour hot cream mixture into egg mixture while whisking. Continue to whisk until well combined.
6

Pour mixture into six 8-oz ramekins. Put ramekins into a high-sided roasting pan. Pour hot water into roasting pan — enough so half the ramekin is submerged in the hot water.

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until set.

Remove ramekins from oven and from hot water and let cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack, then in the fridge for 3 hours or overnight.

Sprinkle tops of custards with the second portion of sugar. Run a kitchen torch over the tops to caramelize the sugar, using a circular motion. Crack tops with a spoon and enjoy!
