In a separate large saucepan, combine the cream, milk, sugar and vanilla and bring to a boil and then turn off the heat. Temper hot liquid into the egg yolks by adding a little at a time and mixing as to not cook the eggs. Return the whole mixture to the cream saucepan and cook over medium heat until the custard is thick, about 10 minutes. Make sure not to let the mixture boil or it will curdle.
