Rice Pudding

Ingredients:

¾ cup uncooked white rice (creamiest with short or medium grain)

2 cups milk (divided into 1 ½ and ½ cups)

1/3 cup white sugar

¼ teaspoon salt

1 egg, beaten

2/3 cup golden raisins

1 tablespoon butter

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

·     Cook rice using standard method.

·     In saucepan, combine 1 ½ cups cooked rice with 1 ½ cups milk, sugar, and salt.

·     Cook over medium heat until thick and creamy (about 20 min).

·     Beat egg into remaining ½ cup of milk. This prevents clumping when the egg is added to the warm milk rice mixture.

·     Stir combined egg/milk and raisins into warm milk rice mixture.

·     Cook for 2 more minutes, stirring constantly.

·     Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and butter.
