1.
Heat the oven to 140°C (120°C in a fan oven), 275°F, gas 1.
2.
Bring the milk to the boil with the cream, sugar and vanilla sugar and remove from the heat.
3.
Beat the egg yolks in a bowl and gradually pour in the hot vanilla cream, stirring all the time. Divide the liquid between four oven-proof ramekins and place in a roasting tin or oven-proof dish. Pour enough hot water into the container to come 2/3 of the way up the side of the ramekins. Bake in the oven for approx. 40 minutes.
4.
Take out of the oven, allow to cool, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours until completely cold.
5.
Before serving, sprinkle a little sugar over the top of each custard and use a blow torch or hot grill to caramelise the sugar. Serve immediately.
