Ingredients

Directions

  1. Combine heavy cream and whole milk in a large saucepan.
  2. Scrape seeds from vanilla beans into the saucepan and add the empty bean pods.
  3. Heat the mixture over medium heat until it just begins to simmer.
  4. Remove vanilla bean pods from the saucepan.
  5. In a large bowl, whisk together egg yolks and sugar until pale and well blended.
  6. Gradually whisk the hot cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture, ensuring the eggs do not scramble.
  7. Return the combined mixture to the saucepan.
  8. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the custard thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon and leaves a clear path when a finger is drawn across it, about 6 minutes.
  9. Do not allow the mixture to boil.
  10. Strain the custard into a large bowl to ensure smoothness.
  11. Whisk in ground cinnamon until fully incorporated.
  12. Chill the sauce until completely cold.
