Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Beat 6 large egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar together until pale and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  2. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon powdered gelatin with 2 tablespoons boiling water and stir until dissolved.
  3. In a medium saucepan, warm 2 cups of milk with 1 teaspoon vanilla extract over medium heat until gently simmering.
  4. Slowly whisk the hot milk mixture into the egg yolks to temper, preventing them from scrambling.
  5. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and whisk constantly for about 2 minutes until it thickens.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in the dissolved gelatin until smooth.
  7. Let the mixture cool for about 10 minutes, then gently fold in 1 cup of whipped heavy cream.
  8. Pour the Bavarian cream mixture into greased molds and refrigerate for at least 6 hours to set.
  9. When serving, unmold the Bavarian cream and plate with 2 cups of fresh berries.
