Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups whole milk
3 large egg yolks
3 cups half and half
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cup uncooked long grain rice
3/4 granulated sugar
3 large egg whites
1/4 cup granulated sugar
Sprinkle of cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place milk in heavy saucepan and bring to a boil over medium high heat. Slowly add in rice, stir once or twice, and let mixture come back to a boil. When it reaches a boil, cover and bring heat to low. Let cook 30 minutes or until rice is tender and most of milk is absorbed. Beat egg yolks with 3/4 cup sugar and 3 cups half and half. Add in the rice mixture. Return mixture to heavy saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly, until mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Add the vanilla extract. Beat egg whites until foamy, then slowly add sugar. Beat until firm peaks are formed. Place pudding in 1 1/2 quart baking dish; top with egg white mixture. Using the back of a spoon you can create a little design in the topping if you like. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Bake in oven for 10 minutes until lightly browned.
