Creamed Rice or Rice Pudding

Ingredients

1 cup rice
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup milk
1 cup water
2 tbsp butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
pinch of salt


Directions

1. Add the heavy cream, milk, water, and butter to a pot and heat until steam begin to rise.
2. Add in the rice and salt to the liquid and bring to a light boil. Stir rice continuously until it is tender and the liquid has thickened.
3. Add in the brown sugar and vanilla. Stir to dissolve all of the sugar and remove from the heat.

Variations:
1. You can add in dried fruit, such as raisins or cranberries, when you first put in the rice.
2. You can also add fresh fruit on top of the cooked rice pudding. I added a few pieces of banana in the picture above.
3. You can add 1 tsp of cocoa powder to give the pudding a light chocolate flavor as I did in the pudding above.
