Add 1 liter of milk to a pot.

Add 1/2 cup of sugar to the milk and stir.

Add 1 tablespoon of vanilla to the mixture.

Add a cinnamon stick to the pot and heat on low until it reaches a simmer.

Once the milk is hot but not boiling, take 2 ladles of the milk and pour it into a bowl.

Add 4 egg yolks to the bowl with the milk and whisk vigorously to temper the eggs.

Slowly pour the egg mixture back into the pot of milk while stirring continuously to avoid curdling.

Let the mixture cook for about 4 minutes while stirring continuously.

Remove the cinnamon stick from the mixture.

Strain the mixture through a colander to remove any solids.

Prepare a baking dish that can hold the molds and add hot water to it for a water bath.

Pour the strained mixture into the molds, filling them halfway.

Place the molds in the baking dish and ensure the water covers half of the molds.

Bake in the oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 40 minutes to 1 hour.

Check for doneness; they should not be overly browned on top.

Let the molds cool for about 1 hour before serving.
