When milk simmers, whisk half into the yolk mixture to temper. Return to the saucepan and simmer over med heat, whisking constantly, until a few bubbles burst on the surface and mixture is thickened, about 30 sec. (Took more than this to firm up.

CRUST: In small bowl, beat yolk, cream, and vanilla with a fork. Put flour, sugar and salt in a food processor. Pulse 3 to 4 times to blend. Distribute the butter in the bowl and pulse 7 to 8 times until resembles coarse meal. Pour the egg mixture over the flour mixture and pulse 5 to 6 times. Process until just begins to form a mass, 8 to 10 seconds. Turn the dough onto a sheet of plastic wrap, press into a 6-inch disk, wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
Remove dough and let stand a bit. Roll to 12 round. Transfer to pan and press dough against sides of the pan. Prick bottom of the dough with a fork. Freeze for 30 min.
