Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with phyllo: brush each sheet with melted butter, cut into 3-inch squares, layer 2 squares per cup.
Step 2
Whisk whole eggs, yolks, condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla until smooth and glossy.
Step 3
Pour custard into each phyllo cup, filling three-quarters full. Custard will jiggle slightly.
Step 4
Bake for 12–14 minutes until custard is set at the edges but the center still jiggles slightly and the edges are golden.
Step 5
Cool in the tin for 2 minutes, then lift gently onto a serving plate while still warm.
