I'm doing a happy dance right now, because after trying countless rice pudding recipes, this one is the one. I was truly getting worried that rice pudding would be 'the dish' that I couldn't master no matter how hard I tried, and little did I know, it was the kind of rice I was using that was the problem. My dd didn't care for it too much, but I believe it's a texture thing. I, however, could easily eat the entire pot. Thanks for posting !
