Create multiple vm's from one

Is there a way to create multiple vm's from one build? I have a 2008 R2 vm. instead of having to rebuild the whole system from scratch is there a way to do a template or something to create multiple vm's from one build? I am using vcenter 5 and i have 2 esxi 5 servers.

You can create a Template by right click the VM and select Clone to template and give the datstore where you want to save after that you will get a template using that template deploy the virtual machine using customizing wizard.
