Step 1: In a large saucepan combine sugar with cornstarch and salt and nutmeg. Whisk in 1 cup milk until smooth. Add in the remaining 3 cups of milk and 1 cup cream and cubed butter. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to the barest simmer, stirring occasionally. Cook 1 hour or a little more or until mixture is no longer liquidy but very creamy (this will thicken up even more if left on the element with heat turned off).
Step 2: Beat egg yolks. Remove pudding from heat. Whisk a little of the pudding into yolks. Add yolk mixture to rest of pudding. Cook 1 minute. Remove from heat again, stir in vanilla. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle top with cinnamon. Serve hot or cold.
