What Can I Add to My Rice Pudding?
-Of course, you can always add raisins, but no one at my house will touch them with a ten foot pole.
-For an extra special treat, you can add chocolate chips, toffee bits, or a drizzle of caramel sauce.
Creamy Rice Pudding
Beat the eggs well in a large glass bowl; set aside. Whisk together cornstarch, salt, and sugar in large pan. Slowly stir in the milks. Cook and stir over medium heat till thick. Add rice and bring to a boil. Slowly whisk about 3 cups of pudding into the beaten eggs. Pour mixture back into pan. Cook and stir till bubbly, then remove from heat and add vanilla. If desired, stir in cinnamon and nutmeg. —If you like your rice pudding richer and saucier, use only 4 cups of rice. I usually serve it for breakfast, so I add 6 cups so it will be more filling.[br]—The original recipe calls for 1 1/4 cups sugar. If you are serving this as a dessert, you could add the full amount.Rice Pudding

NEVER knew my daughter loved rice pudding but I made it for my son in law. She said it was better than anything I ever made. She even loved the raisins. She asked if I could fit it into my Thanksgiving dinner. Of course I will. Thank you for this great recipe.
Yay, I am so glad it was such a big hit! Thanks so much for stopping by and letting me know how much your daughter liked it. What a fun addition to Thanksgiving dinner. 🙂
Made today best I’ve ever made it made so can I freeze & I put raisins in
Love recipe 💚
I’ve never frozen it before, so let me know how it turns out. 🙂
Best rice pudding ever!
Thanks Ray! I’m so glad to hear it!
We have left over rice and we are most definitely gonna give this a try!
Hope you love it as much as everyone in my family. It’s such a tasty way to use up that extra rice. 🙂
What type of rice do you use? I have tried making rice pudding before and my rice never gets soft…
I usually just use regular long grain white rice. You cook the rice first, so as long as you cook it completely, it should be soft before you add it to the rice pudding. If it’s dry, I suggest adding a little more water when you cook your rice. That should fix the problem.
By far, the best I’ve made!
Yay, I am so glad to hear it! Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving a comment. I appreciate it. 🙂
Absolutely delicious! This recipe is a keeper, thank you!
Rice pudding looks amazing. Reminds me of my moms.
I just made this recipe and OMG! It is the best, its very creamy and I only use half the recipe because I didnt have that much rice. This will aways be my one and only . Love it! Thank you for sharing!
I made it using 1 cup of heavy cream, minus 1 of the cups of milk. Also added the nutmeg and cinnamon on top. Very rich and YUMMY! Lots of calories but once in a while that’s ok
I bet that was so rich and delicious! And I say you gotta live on the wild side every once in awhile! 🙂
I’ve been looking for a good reciepe for rice pudding for my husband. I read over several reciepes and yours sounds the best. I can’t wait to try it.
Hope he likes it as much as my husband does! 🙂
Is there a certain kind of rice you use? ~W
I would like to know if there is a certain kind of rice. I used a rice that when it puffs up is not very puffy. I tried it with this rice for 2 different recipes and it tastes good but is sort of dry. Before I use this recipe, I need to know what rice you are using. Thanks. JC
This rice pudding I excellent.
The 3eggs make the difference
