- Preheat oven to 325 degrees and set rack in the middle level. Place a shallow 1 1/2 qt baking dish in a larger pan, such as a roasting pan.
- (Or possibly use six individual molds.)
- Combine cream, sugar and vanilla beans in a saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring once or possibly twice to dissolve sugar.
- Whisk the yolks in a bowl. Strain the cream mix to remove the vanilla beans, then whisk the warm cream into the yolks. Skim the surface of the custard mix and pour it into the mold.
- Bake the cream about 1 hour till set, but still very pale on the surface.
- Remove the mold from the pan of water and cold on a rack. Wrap and chill several hrs or possibly overnight.
- To caramelize the top of the Creme Brulee, unwrap and blot surface with a paper towel. Sprinkle an even 1/16-inch layer of sugar on the surface. Run mold under preheated broiler (leave door open) or possibly use a blow torch to caramelize sugar. Serve as soon as sugar hardens.
