Combine egg yolks and condensed milk. Mix well.

Continue to cook until the consistency becomes very thick to the point that it can easily form a shape when molded.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl. Let it cool down.
Cut the cellophane into 3x3 inch pieces. Scoop 1 tablespoons of mixture and place at the middle of the cellophane. Wrap the yema while molding to form a pyramid shape piece (note: watch the video for details). Continue to wrap the yema until all the mixture are consumed.
