Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a small bowl, beat together the egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla, until smooth.
Add the heavy cream to a medium pot and cook over low heat until almost boiling. Remove from heat. Pour a small amount of the hot cream into the egg yolk mixture and quickly mix until combined. Pour the egg yolk mixture into the cream, and mix until combined.
Divide the custard mixture between 5 (6-ounce) ramekins. Place the ramekins in a large baking dish, and fill the dish with hot water to about halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the custard only jiggles slightly when shaken. Remove from the oven and let cool in the water bath for 15 minutes, then move to the refrigerator to cool completely.
After the custard has cooled, preheat the broiler on high. Sprinkle the sugar evenly over the top of each custard. Broil for 3-4 minutes, watching closely, until browned and bubbling. Serve immediately.
