### How to Make Fail-Proof Egg Custard
1. **Preheat the oven** and prepare a water bath by filling a roasting pan with hot water.
2. **Whisk eggs, sugar, and vanilla** until smooth and combined.
3. **Warm the milk** gently (do not boil), then slowly whisk it into the egg mixture.
4. **Pour the custard into ramekins** or a baking dish.
5. **Place the custard in the water bath** and bake until just set — it should still have a slight jiggle in the center.
6. **Cool and chill** before serving for best texture.
