TO MAKE THE FILLING
Step 1: Mix flour and cornstarch with 1/3 cup cold milk to make a thin smooth paste, and set aside.
Step 2: In a separate bowl, beat egg yolks, then add sugar and salt and beat well.
Step 3: In a medium saucepan, scald remaining milk, stirring constantly.
Step 4: While you continue stirring the milk in the pot, add a small amount of the scalded milk to the flour paste and a small amount to the egg/sugar mixture. Pour both mixtures into the pot with the scalded milk and stir well.
Step 5: Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened. Remove from heat. Add butter and vanilla, and stir well.
