Creamy Rice Pudding

I had rice in my rice cooker leftover from dinner last night. So I whipped up a batch of my favorite comfort food, Creamy Rice Pudding.  It's so easy.  It's best when eaten warm...trust me. 

Creamy Rice Pudding

1 1/2 cups cooked rice

*2 cups cups milk, divided

1/3 cup sugar

1/4 tsp. salt

1 egg, beaten

2/3 cup raisins 

1 Tbsp. butter

1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

First put your raisins in a bowl and cover with hot water.  Let them sit there and plump up until you need them.  In a medium saucepan combine rice and 1 1/2 cups milk, sugar and salt.  Cook over medium heat until thick and creamy, 10-15 minutes. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup milk, beaten egg and drained raisins.  Cook 2 minutes more stirring constantly.  Remove from heat, stir in butter and vanilla and serve warm.

*This is a great recipe to use that dry milk in your food storage with.  I did and it tastes great.
