For the filling: heat the milk in a pan and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and leave to cool slightly.

Whisk the egg yolks, vanilla, sugar and cornflour until blended. Whisk in the hot milk and return to the pan. Heat gently, stirring until thickened. Put into a bowl and leave to cool, whisking from time to time.
