| Servings: 4 |
Ingredients:  1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon 1 tsp. vanilla extract 3 cups whole milk 3/4 cup uncooked white rice 1/2 cup dried cherries (dried in sugar and rehydrated in water or a mixture of warm brandy and water) 1/2 cup sugar 1 cup heavy cream Fresh raspberries or berries of your choice Whipped cream Mint sprigs |
| Instructions: Place milk in a saucepan; add ground cinnamon and vanilla extract, stirring well to avoid scorching the milk. Add uncooked white rice and cook for 1 hour while the rice absorbs the milk. Add dried cherries and sugar; stir until well blended. Cool pudding in a bowl of ice water. Whip heavy cream and fold into the rice mixture. This can be refrigerated in a covered container until ready to serve. To serve, place pudding in stemmed dessert glasses about two-thirds of the way up. Add a layer of fresh raspberries, cherries, strawberries or other type of berries and another layer of pudding mixture. Finish with a dollap of whipped cream and a mint sprig. |
