Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup medium-grain rice, uncooked
  • 1 & ½ cups milk
  • 1 cup coconut milk, full fat preferred
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • ½ cup chocolate chips or shredded semi-sweet chocolate of choice
  • 2 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 ¼ cups full fat milk
  • 3 tablespoon sugar or more/less to taste
  • 1 pinch cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Follow the package instructions for cooking the rice until it's "al dente," which means it's just cooked enough, not too soft.
  • In a medium pot, heat the milk, but don't let it boil. Then, add the cooked rice, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Pour in the coconut milk. Keep stirring the mixture while it simmers until it gets thicker.
  • Add the chocolate chips and butter, then take the pot off the heat. Put the lid on and let it sit for a few minutes.
  • Serve the pudding with fresh berries, chocolate, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Enjoy!
  • Recipe Notes

Notes

  • When to Add the Chocolate: Remove the pot from the heat before adding chocolate chips and butter to ensure a smooth pudding.
  • Resting time: Allowing the pudding to rest with the lid on helps meld the flavors and lets it thicken slightly more.
  • Rice texture: Cooking the rice "al dente" ensures it doesn't become mushy when added to the pudding.
  • Toppings: Fresh berries, chocolate, and cinnamon add flavor and texture to the pudding. Feel free to customize it with your favorite toppings.
