This is the creamiest rice pudding ever. It’s so rich and the flavors are absolutely amazing! I’m going to be honest, up until a few months ago, rice pudding just really freaked me out. Every time my grandmother would make it, I would try it I would hate the texture of the rice. The only part I liked was the cinnamon on top. I think this was because every time I had rice pudding, it was not homemade! For some odd reason even though I wasn’t the biggest fan of it, for the past week I have had such a hankering for it!! So I decided to create a homemade version. OOOMG. Let me tell you. It is ah-mazing. Seriously guys. From the vanilla flavored pudding base, to the soft rice to the cinnamon in and on top – ahhh so good.
In my recipe I added egg yolks instead of whole eggs because I thought about my chocolate pudding recipe and it calls for all yolks. It’s amazingly creamy and I wanted this pudding to be as creamy as possible so that’s what I used in this recipe, but only used two. Egg yolks also create an incredible amount of richness. It is just the right balance of creamy and rich without being too much.
This pudding is addicting. Sooo addicting. Taking these photos was extremely difficult because I was trying so hard not to steal spoonfuls of it (which I wound up doing anyway!). Self control? What’s that?
I even had some for breakfast yesterday! It’s really good warmed in the microwave just for a few seconds.
The rice acts as a natural thickener in the pudding so there is no need for cornstarch. After the first addition of milk it’s going to feel like an eterrrrrnity waiting for it to thicken up and it’s going to look like way too much milk but really, it’s not. I was worried myself the first time I made it, but I promise it will thicken up in about 20 minutes! Just have patience.
^ I know that picture looks a little unappetizing, but look how creamy it is!
I added cinnamon into my pudding, that’s optional, but it’s my favorite. I also added a bit of brown sugar, which you don’t normally find in rice pudding but it compliments the cinnamon flavor so well.
If you love rice pudding you will absolutely love my version! It is extremely addicting! Can’t say I didn’t warn ya.

Ingredients:
Instructions:
Boil rice, water (amount of water goes according to directions on box), granulated sugar and salt in a medium saucepan until completely done and tender. Pour in half and half + 1/2 cup milk and simmer on low for 20 minutes, stirring every few minutes until thick and creamy. It may look like it's too much milk and it will never thicken, but it will you just have to wait. Once thickened, Mix in brown sugar.
In a small bowl add egg yolks. Spoon 3 spoonfuls of the pudding mixture in with the yolks and whisk rapidly to temper and prevent scrambling. Once yolks are warm, add into pudding mixture and add the remaining half cup of milk. Cook for 3-5 minutes more until thickened up again. Once thickened, remove from heat and add in butter, vanilla and cinnamon.
Pudding can be served warm or cold. Store in airtight container for 3-4 days.

You used Minute Rice, I use the regular kind, So how much rice is needed when once cooked ? Thanks for your speedy reply.
Just use the same amount of (uncooked) rice as called for in the recipe and follow the directions on the box you are using! Hope this helps!
Hi. I want to put raisins in mine. When should I do that? Beginning or end?
I would add them in during the last 10 minutes or so.
I find that raisins, dried blueberries are best added near the beginning. They soften better and slightly change the flavor
I made rice pudding for the first time today using a low cooker. It looks and smells delicious but It has a dry texture. Any advise on how I can make it creamier?
Yum!! I would try adding more cream possibly.
I would mildly fry the raisens in oil or clarified butter till they puff up before adding it to the pudding in the end
Yum! Great idea.
To soften raisins put them in 1 cup of boiling water let set at least 5 minutes
To plump up your raisis before adding into anything that you are making or Baking you put them into a big enough bowl and you can either use Tea or Warmed Orange juice , allow them to sit in the liquid for at least 45 to 60 minutes before adding. Make sure to drain all the liquid away from the raisins before adding to the Rice pudding . You will have some nice plump raisins in your Rice Pudding to enjoy .
Yes I am definitely adding raisins too to my rice pudding.
Should I use a lid to cover at all
No need to cover.
What Ian half and half sorry to ask lol
Yes, do not cover rice pudding no matter which version you are trying. Evaporation to reduce and condense the milk into the rich creamy goodishness.
You never said what to to with the unsalted butter.
Yes, she did. If you paid attention, at the end of the recipe…
“Add remaining half cup milk, cook 3 – 5 minutes more until thickened up again, once thickened remove from heat add in BUTTER, vanilla, cinnamon.”
When in doubt we can always rub it on our chest
I meant neck… rub it on our neck Like perfume. Geez I love my addiction to butter.
I just made this with regular long grain rice and Omigosh…this is by far the best rice pudding I have ever eaten…thank u for the recipe❤️❤️
jessicia, i would like to know if a 13 x 9 pan will be alright to make your receipt that it calls for 3/4 cups of rice
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! I have made it several times and my family absolutely loves it!
That’s awesome, Terry! Thanks so much for letting me know!
Do you drain the water that you cook the rice in or do you keep it
The water does not get drained! It will soak up into the rice while cooking the pudding.
3/4 c of raw rice makes about 1 1/2 c cooked (about double).
I tried using regular rice..also added almost 1 more cup milk…still no pudding just rice…maybe next time will try adding half the rice and more milk or cream….very disappointed….there was absolutely no pudding, can turn dish over and nothing comes out …its so thick …also I might try just adding some cream or milk I guess…lol… does taste awesome though
I used 3/4 c minute rice and followed her liquid measurements exactly and I have lovely pudding. Maybe you mis measured ?
It sounds like you thought the rice would cook in the liquid in the recipe, in other words the half and half and milk. You have to have the rice already cooked for this recipe or use the Minute Rice.
you can cook the rice in the half n half, it just takes longer
Yep. It’s easiest to start with cooked rice in my experience anyway. Regular rice is very thirsty. Recipes with uncooked rice that are to be baked use a huge ratio of liquid, up to 4 cups of milk (no cream) with 3/4 cups of rice. Probably adding one more cup of milk and cooking a bit longer would fix.
Did you make the rice using rice directions than add half and half and half the milk my can out perfectly
Sounds like you tried cooking the rice in just the milk.
– just an assumption.
Try cooking the rice according to the directions on the packaging for the rice as well as the granulated sugar and salt in a medium saucepan until completely done and tender.
-Then proceed with the addition of the other ingredients.
This recipe is the Bees Knees
About 2 1/2 cups cooked.
Arborio rice which you make risotto with works beautifully in rice pudding….love it with cinnamon sugar sprinkled on top!
Yum!
Do you cook the Arborio rice normally and then add it to the recipe? I have some of that at home.
This is the BEST Rice Pudding EVER ! I found the directions PERFECT . I at first tasted it and then could not stop eating it right out of the pan! Thank You!
That’s awesome! I’m so happy you liked it. Now you have me craving it!
How many servings is this suppose to be ?? Do I double the amount if I am doing 3 cups of rice ?
3 cups of rice would require quadrupling the recipe.
If you’d like to make a huge batch like that, it might be easiest to bake it in the oven.
Hi in recipe what does she mean by half and half
Half & half. Half & half is half & half. You can buy it in cartons in the grocery store. It’s basically halfway between milk and heavy cream.
Exactly! Thanks so much for helping out, Sam!
Hi Jessica, just saw your recipe while looking up rice pudding. Just a note to those wondering what half and half is. It’s half milk and half cream. Do not buy fat free it’s full of icky stuff. Simple answers are usually the best! I’m sure I’ll enjoy your recipe!
In Canada Half & Half is referred to as Cereal Cream. 10% Milk fat
10% is awesome. USA heavy cream is maybe 5%?
US heavy cream is 35% cream is about 28% whole milk is 3.5% – that’s why its called half & half. Half milk and cream gets you to about 15%
Door is right!
Will you be getting USA 1/2&1/2 now that Nafta was changed? More fat but less sugar than Cereal Cream, not by much tho may be of interest to diabetics.
You can make your own half and half by mixing one Tbsp of melted butter in a cup of milk.
This is good to know. We go through alot of half and half. Lol
Thr rice pudding
Half cream, half milk.
this is the best rice pudding recipe I’ve ever come across! I followed the directions except I doubled the white sugar. I will be making this often…so good!!
That’s so great to hear! Thank you and thanks for reporting back!
I agree!, except I added Real Whipping Cream instead of Half & Half. It was fabulous. 🐞
BTW-I added raisins during the last 10 minutes of cooking. Thank you for the best Rice Pudding recipe EVER!!🐞
You are so welcome!!
Yum, I’m sure it was extra rich!
This was soo good. I added some almond extract as well. Thank you
http://www.gofundme.com/rachelle
That sounds like a great addition! I made a batch of this last night too, so good!
I made this recipe at the insistence of my husband who loves rice pudding. (Only he required that I add raisins) I myself had never tasted rice pudding. I just couldn’t grasp the concept. I mean rice is for dinner, pudding is a dessert you can’t mix the two right? Wrong! Boy was I wrong.
As others have commented I tasted right from the pan and I was an instant fan! It was delicious. Thanks so much for sharing.
I know, right?! I always thought the same thing and this is the recipe that changed everything for me! Lol, too funny. I’m so glad you guys loved it, Rhaina!
Rice Pudding is well known in the diner circuit. A menu staple that has been around for decades, if not a century, and is traditionally one of the free deserts offered for free with a meal. Pure comfort food
Hop online and check out oriental rice desserts. You’ll be amazed.
Just tried this recipe…hands down the best rice pudding!!
i am making this now, does anyone know at what point I should add raisins?
For extra goodness, soak the raisins in rum until they plump (drain) then add at the end
Yum!
Perfect! Rum soaked raisins do add extra flavor but make sure when you drain the excess rum, you drink it.
So the end result makes how much pudding? I’m going to a potluck and wonder if I should double the recipe.
I’m not sure exactly how much it makes, but it makes enough for about 4-6 generous servings. I would double the batch for a potluck (I doubled this recipe for Easter and it was more than enough, especially when there are other desserts!) When I double this recipe though, I do it in separate batches because I have found that when I double it together it doesn’t come out as good. Hope this helps!
I made it today for my husband Milan who loves rice pudding. At the end I had beaten the egg whites and folded them into the cooled pudding. It made it even better and besides, it’s a shame to throw away the whites. Thank you for the wonderful recipe!
That’s good to know and you’re welcome!
If you use leftover rice that is already cooked, how much would it call for?
Looks amazing, and can’t wait to try! And I’ll be putting in the same glass dishes. They were my grandma’s and she bought them individually with peanut butter in them!
These are my grandmother’s glass dishes too!
Can this be frozen? To save some for later?
I’ve never done it myself but here’s an interesting article with tips for freezing it! http://canyoufreeze.com/rice-pudding/ Hope this helps, Erica!
Hi
Im sorry I’m lost in translation and was just wondering? I boil the rice and water according to package, and while cooking add granulated sugar and salt in a medium saucepan until completely done and tender. and continue following directions? so sorry I appreciate a quick response, my sister loves rice pudding would like to make for her
Yes, you are correct!
What is half and half?
Half and half is basically a mixture of whole milk and cream. I’m not sure where you are located, but you can normally find it in the refrigerated section of your grocery store near the milk.
Can i use something other than half-and-half? Like some sort of heavy whipping cream mixture?
I just made this recipe for my family. They now have a new favorite. My young grandson cried for more when he finished his bowl. We put raisins and blue berries in ours. I will be making this again. Thank you for sharing the recipe.
Aw, that is so great to hear, Kim! You’re very welcome. Blueberries and raisins sound yummy in it.
Just made this for the first time for Christmas dinner. Easy to make and absolutely fabulous!
That’s so great to hear! I hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas!
The taste is really really good but mine got so thick it wasn’t pudding anymore. I followed the directions exactly except used Uncle Bens white rice. What went wrong?
So sorry that, that happened, Michelle! I’ve only made this recipe with minute rice so I’m unsure what happened. I think maybe the rice soaked up too much of the liquid, maybe try adding more liquid next time or stick to minute rice.
Thank you for this rice pudding recipe. We love it. It has taken me 30 years to finally find a rice pudding recipe that comes out amazing!
You’re very welcome, Tina! I’m so glad you found a recipe you love!
The recipe was perfect! Your recipe was my first attempt at making rice pudding and it couldn’t have turned out better! Delicious…thank you
That’s so amazing to hear! You just made my morning.
I love rice pudding. Usually, I make extra rice for leftovers to use in rice pudding. It’s great for breakfast, lunch, and dessert.
I made this tonight for my husband and added nutmeg. It was wonderful. I’ve made Rice pudding before but the brown sugar made a difference.
Nutmeg sounds like a yummy addition. I agree, brown sugar makes a HUGE difference, it gives it a richer flavor.
Use fresh ground nutmeg, makes a real flavor difference. Ratio is 25% (1/4 tsp fresh ground = 1 tsp pre-ground).
Hi Jessica,
I am from South Africa and have never heard of half and half ( had to google it) but we don’t have it here, can I just use half cream half milk instead?
Thank you!
Yes! That is essentially what half and half is so that is a perfect substitution!
I have been thinking of rice pudding for weeks, do not know why. Your recipe looks delicious ,gonna give it try.
I have always uses my mother’s recipe for rice pudding, but was enticed by the great comments to try this one. Wow! Absolutely divine and when I served it at book club, it was a winner. I did add raisins and a drip of vanilla. Thank you so much!
Yay, that’s so great to hear, Pauline! I’m happy this rice pudding went over well at your book club!
I am so glad I came across this recipe. I have been searching for years for a rice pudding that was like my grandmas and this is it! It’s so creamy and delicious.
Thanks for sharing:
This makes me so happy that you found a recipe like your grandmother’s! Thanks so much, Hailee!
Just made this and it’s been a huge hit! Already writing down the recipe in triple the amount (have requests to bring this to Thanksgiving). You now have another loyal follower!
Oh, thank you so much Phil! You just made my day. And this is definitely a Thanksgiving favorite at our home too.
Just made this for a friend, I’m not a big rice pudding fan…..lol but I could of ate it all….very yummy! Thanks
I loved this. Somehow missed the part about minute rice and used regular rice. It was fine. I didn’t have half and half and used evaporated milk instead. It is absolutely delicious and creamy and addicting just as you warned. When it cools im going to try and brulee the top for. A prettier presentation. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Ellie!
Can I make it with cooked rice? I have some left over from dinner and my husband loves rice pudding!
Hmm, that’s a good question! The first step of the recipe the uncooked rice boil with sugar and salt because it infuses the rice so I’m not sure if the cooked rice will take on the sweet flavor as well. If I were you, I would still do that step, but use half of the water just to let the flavors soak in and allow the rice to soften up a little but more and go from there. You can always add more liquid as you go on if you need it. Let me know how it turns out or if you have any more questions!
Yes, it is definitely ok to use cooked rice.
Rice pudding needs the rice cooked out longer to a softer consistency than how rice is regularly prepared for a meal, so there is still plenty of time and space for leftover cooked rice to take on the flavors and textures the dairy and sugars impart in a proper rice pudding.
I just made this with canned coconut milk for the half and half, and regular coconut milk (sold like cows milk) for the milk. Very good!
Thank you four the recipe!
Great!
Wow! I have never made (or tasted) rice pudding before, but this is delicious! I happened to stop on the Food Network as I was flipping channels, and someone on a cooking competition show made rice pudding. I decided that I just had to have some at 9:00 at night. This recipe was the first I found, so I went with it. So glad I did!
I didn’t have all of the ingredients, so I made several substitutions/adjustments. First, I only had brown rice (the 5-minute kind, but I cooked for about 12 minutes to get it tender). No half and half, so I used heavy whipping cream. I was out of milk, so I used sweetened vanilla almond milk. It took about 30 minutes to thicken. After adding the egg yolks, it looked like the perfect texture, so I decided not to add the other 1/2 cup of almond milk. I also used salted butter. Once done, I topped it with sliced almonds. I loved it, and so did my husband! Of course neither of us has anything to compare it to since this was our first time. I would probably reduce the amount of sugar and vanilla next time, if I use the sweetened vanilla almond milk again.
Hi, Im wondering if anyone know if this is safe to eat while pregnant (due to the egg). I’ve had the worst craving for rice pudding and this looks AMAZING
The egg yolks will cook once you add them to the pudding & simmer it for another 3 – 5 minutes . No need to worry about salmonella
Are the yolks necessary?
Yes! They are what gives pudding its creamy consistency.
The yolks are not needed . Although it does make it more creamy. As long as you bring the temp up to 160 ° F for 3 min. It’s ok to eat while pregnant.
Some recipes do not even call for eggs or yolks as others do, but I have found that the small bit of yolk adds a subtle but real richness to the flavor as well as the texture.
Another ingredient that can enhance is a wee bit of lemon or orange peel zest. Adds just the right amount of brightness give the flavor depth.
Could I use jasmine rice?
I don’t see why not. I have not tried so I do not know for sure. If you test it out, let me know how it works for you!
I’ve tried many rice pudding recipes, varying them to suit my liking. Even writing in the margins how I changed them. I make it after I make rice for dinner. But I still didn’t find ” the creamiest”, till now!! This is it! Love it, love it! I love the addition of brown sugar, though I did decrease it by a bit. And I added nutmeg, which I usually just add when I eat it. Thanks,
I made this recipe and I absolutely love it. This will be a regular in my house. Thank you for the great recipe!
Yay! Thanks for reporting back, Leah!
Excellent! I cooked my mid grain rice in the instant pot with the sugar and salt for 4 minutes high pressure, then natural release for 10 minutes. Followed the rest of the recipe exactly, and it came out perfect!
I just made this with some left over brown rice from dinner earlier in the week. I used 1.5 cups cooked rice and added it to the milk and half-n-half with sugar and salt. I followed the rest of the directions as written and it tastes amazing. Now it just has to pass muster with my husband and kiddos.
Awesome!!
Can I use instant white rice?
Yes, that is what is used in the recipe.
Omg!!!! Just made this w Success Boil in a Bag white rice…TO DIE FOR!!!! First time making it, as well. Thank you so much for this recipe.
You’re very welcome, Dawn!! Glad to hear it comes out great with that rice as well.
This is hands down the best rice pudding recipe ever! My 12 and 10 yr old made it and it was amazing
Awesome!!!
What kind of milk do you use for this recipe? Does it matter?
Nope! I’ve used 2% and whole both with the same results.
OMGEEEEEEEE!! This is absolutely amazing! I’m sooooo going to make this for dessert when we have guests over. Thank you for sharing !
This recipe was so good! The instructions were super easy and i can’t wait to make it again! So creamy and delicious
Yay! Happy you enjoyed it, Kelly!
What grain length rice do you use? Medium, long or extra long?
You really can use any type, they all taste good and work. Some rices may just need a bit more liquid and/or cook time.
Rice pudding by nature isn’t an exact science (say like with baking pastries, etc). It is very forgiving. Even within the same batch it can easily be adjusted to a desired consistency. Might be perfect the night we make it but seem dry the next day… no problem, just stir in some milk or cream and enjoy all over again.
The only thing we really need to watch for is burning it, or cooking the eggs too quickly and having globs of protein floating in our end product T.T
Very good recipe Jessica, thanks for publishing. I made this tonight with our Danish exchange student, she loved it. We’ll be diving into your website for more recipes. Cheers from a new fan in Minnesota!
Soooo good!! Better than Martha Stewart’s recipe. (Or maybe I should say different and more to my old-fashioned preference.) It reminds me of my Dad’s rice pudding. 😋
Do I have to put in eggs or not?
Yes, they are needed in this recipe to produce the custard.
Thinking about using pumpkin spice creamer instead of half half. Think its a good idea?
Sounds delicious!
Well, if pumpkin spice salmon can be a popular trend then pumpkin spice in a very neutral dish such as rice pudding should pose no problem at all.
How many servings does it make?
I made this rice pudding and it was /is the creamiest and most delicious I have ever had. I added a cinnamon stick when cooking the rice to infuse more cinnamon flavor (tip I learned years ago), and it was sooo good! Thanks for sharing this recipe. It’s a keeper for sure!! Will be making for years to come!!
Can you use heavy cream instead of half and half
You can try using half heavy cream and half milk. Using only heavy cream would be way too thick in my opinion.
Heavy cream alone would be too rich and you’d also risk the dish breaking (where the fats separate and leave a greasy layer). The non-cream part of milk is also necessary to develop the flavor here.
I was looking at the recipe but didn’t see the serving size. How much does this make?
Enough to share one small tbs portion after you’ve binged on the rest
4-6 servings
Yummy sigh of delightfulness. Umm…
I made this for the first time after seeing it on line and oh, I am definitely making this my first choice in rice pudding.
I made it exactly to the directions and could not ask for a better result.It was so smooth, creamy, and delicate in flavor. I will absolutely be sharing this recipe with friends. Thank you for sharing this recipe with me and others. Also, as mentioned in a previous comment, this recipe makes about six 1/2 cup servings.
Woooo! Thanks so much Mary! This is definitely one of my favorite recipes as well. I don’t make it as often as I should!
Just made this and it was delicious. Followed the recipe exactly and it turned out flawless! Husband approved!
Ithis was my first time making rice pudding. It came out pretty thick which is fine with me. Tastes great. I was confused at first as i used regular rice so was nt sure while i was boiling it to cover ornot. I just didnt cover it but i didnhave to add water sometimes to prevent the rice from sticking to the pan to much. And after everything was done i made about a pints worth and everyone liked it.
Hi, I used unsweetened almond milk for the milk…. It added an amazing flavor! Try it.
I also sprinkled some honey toasted pecans and (cooked) dried cherries in. It was so good.
Now my house smells like baked cookies!
I just made this with regular long grain white rice. It turned out great. But I cooked the rice first, 2 cups water to 3/4 cup rice, nothing else. When the rice was mostly soft I rinsed it at least twice in water to get all the starches out. Then I began your recipe. And love the texture and flavors just the way they are.
mmmm… not sure you need or want to rinse the rice starches out of this dish, pretty sure the fine rice starch helps create the silky texture.
I made this with regular rice and it was super yummy! Easy, fast and didn’t scorch as these puddings tend to do for me. Yay, great recipe =)
Is it really ok to put the sugar in and then cook the rice with it? I’ve never cooked rice with sugar like that. Thanks!
Yes.
It’s ok to put the sugar in with minute rice. If using regular uncooked rice it’s best to wait until the last 10 minutes. The rice will cook quicker and you won’t risk the sugar burning to the bottom of the pot.
This is the best rice pudding I ever made! Recipe instructions are clear and concise! I used all 1/2 and 1/2 and no milk. I only wanted to purchase one of the two so I opted for the 1/2 and 1/2. So rich and yummy! 😋
The minute rice I bought says it cooks in 5 minutes no stirring it also says 1 cup water to 1 cup of rice is this the correct rice and how do I adjust amount of half and half and milk to 1 cup of rice
To follow this recipe here, use 3/4c of rice.
If the concern is that you’d rather use the additional dangling 1/4 cup of rice, adjust to;
1 cup uncooked white minute rice
1 1/3 cup half and half
1 1/3cup milk
5 1/3 tbs granulated sugar
1 1/3 tbs light brown sugar
1/3 tsp salt
2 big egg yolks
1 1/3 tbs unsalted butter
2/3 tsp vanilla
2/3 tsp cinnamon
Hi! I love this recipe,its absolutely amazing!!!! I actually used heavy cream in place of half and half and it came great!
Cheers
Brian
I’ve been making this recipe for a few years now and love it. Recently I’ve been having issues with dairy and have switched to almond milk. I have slightly tweaked your recipe and it is just as good with vanilla almond milk.
Instant rice doubles and raw rice triples in size when cooked. Make with 1/2c long grain rice to equal 3/4c of instant rice.
I’ve been using your recipe for a few years now & it is hands down the best rice pudding ever. I always double the recipe because a single batch is never enough & we love the cinnamon so I just dump it in. Thanks for sharing this fab recipe.
P.S. I serve it with vanilla ice cream. The combo of hot & cold really works great together.
Sounds delicious!
I made this with leftover rice. Not having an exact measurement of rice I added extra milk and eggs. When it was done cooking it was thick and creamy. Once cooled it was a block of cement. I mix in milk or cream to make it creamy again. It would be helpful if there was a picture or video showing the consistency of the pudding. I would have added more milk had I known it was going to cool into a solid mass.
The recipe states to use uncooked rice. Please follow the recipe next time before commenting. Sorry the recipe didn’t work out for you with your changes, Sarah!
– Jessica
Rice pudding is always different between the day you make it and the following day. Rice continues to absorb available liquid over time and the rice starches floating in the pudding part continue to plump as well. No problem, you did the right thing. Just add more milk to get it to the consistency shown in the above recipe photo.
Just made this and it is absolutely perfectly delicious! I wanted a rice pudding recipe that was creamy and not “gloppy”. This turned out exactly the way I wanted it. I forgot the butter……….boo, but will make sure I remember next time. it was still amazing!
I’ve been looking for a yummy rice pudding recipe and I found it!!! This was sooooo good! I was a little shocked by the yellow color (from the egg yolks), but the taste is delicious! I even add a little more cream when I eat it, especially after it’s chilled and had time to set. Thank you for this yummy recipe
Can I make this with brown rice?
You can use brown rice, it just won’t have as pleasant a texture. If you’re used to eating brown rice, it likely won’t be a bother.
Just made this with raisins for my dad and husband. This recipe was so easy to follow and turned out absolutely amazing! For the raisins I soaked them in a little bit ofRum Chata and Jack Daniels. Added a nice little touch for the grownups to enjoy. Thank you for such a great recipe!
Sounds delicious!!
– Jessica
Ooh boy YES! Now I need to try the Rum Chata soakeded raisins. Thanks for that idea
There really is no need to be nasty. I’m sure it was an oversight on Kayla’s part. Have you ever missed something when reading…even when you have gone back?
I really like the adage, “There are lots of nice people in the world. If you can’t find one, be one.”
Jessica, WOW! so simple, yet SO tasty! This is fantastic, yum. Thanks for the recipe.
Thank you, Julia!
I’ll definitely be making this again. It is everything that you said it was, rich and creamy and just delicious !
Absolutely delicious!! I actually used 1/2 cup heavy cream & 1/2 cup 2% milk, along with the 1 cup of half & half. It’s chilling in the fridge now! Can hardly wait. Recipe is bookmarked & will certainly be making this again! Thank you for the awesome recipe 😊
Hi. This sounds soooooo good. .Now being a good Southern girl, I’m thinking those raisins Need to soak in some good BURBON. WHEN ITS COOKED IT IS THEN CHILD FRIENDLY. SO HATERS Please don’t. LOL I’m going to try that. YOU CAN HAVE A BOOZEY TASTING TREAT.
Yummm! No hate here! Lol
This is the best arroz con leche I have had! I just made it today, and the texture, consistency, and flavor are Mexico-made and pure heaven! Thank you for this awesome recipe!
