For the filling: Put the egg yolks into a small bowl and set aside. In a small saucepan combine the sugar, cornstarch, salt, and milk. Stir with a whisk until well combined. Bring the mixture to a light simmer over medium heat. Gradually add the half of the warm milk mixture to the egg yolks while whisking continuously. Return the mixture to the pot. Cook the mixture over medium low heat, stirring continuously until it thickens. The mixture should coat the back of a wooden spoon. Remove from heat. Stir in the butter and vanilla.

Bring the water to a boil in a saucepan (use one that the glass bowl will fit into) over medium heat. Place the bowl over the pot but don't let the bottom of the bowl touch the water.
