Creamy Dreamy Chocolate Rice Pudding

Creamy Dreamy Chocolate Rice Pudding is a fantastic and easy kid-friendly recipe to eat at breakfast or for dessert. I like to eat rice pudding for dessert, but you can make it for breakfast. Your kids will love this recipe. If you prefer to make regular rice pudding, you can leave out the chocolate and add in cinnamon and raisins. Either way, you are going to love it!

KEEP IT SIMPLE

Growing up, my mom would make us rice for breakfast. She would cook the rice and add in a little butter, milk, and a teaspoon of sugar. Rice for breakfast may be a little old fashioned and out of style. However, there are so many things that aren’t out of style like the memories we hold dear to our hearts. I hope that you are making memories with your family. Make the best of the time that you have together because life is short.

INGREDIENTS YOU’LL NEED

(full amounts in the downloadable recipe below)

  • Milk
  • Jasmin Rice
  • Salt
  • Egg
  • Brown Sugar
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Cinnamon
  • Chocolate Chips or Raisins

HOW DO YOU MAKE THE CREAMY DREAMY RICE PUDDING?

1. In a medium saucepan stir together the rice, milk, and a dash of salt. Heat to a boil over high heat. Keep stirring because the rice will stick or boil over. Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for about 20 minutes or until the rice is tender.

2. In a small bowl stir together the egg and brown sugar. When the rice is tender, use a half a cup of the mixture and add one teaspoon of the mixture at a time to the egg and brown sugar to temper the mixture. Please be careful to not scramble your egg. Add the brown sugar/egg mixture to the rice mixture. Add in vanilla and cinnamon. Cook until thickened which is about 5 minutes. (160 degrees F) You can add in the chocolate chips. If you prefer raisins, please wait to add the raisins in when you have completed the cooking process.

3. Serve warm or cold.

Food for the Soul

Psalms 107:9 says, “For He satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul He fills with good things.

Without a doubt, I have been in a place where I felt like a lost traveler. Are you feeling lost amongst all the things going on in the world? Look to God no matter what is going on around you. God will fill your life with good things.

Crockpot Roasted Chicken and Vegetables

Crockpot Roasted Chicken and Vegetables is a great kid-friendly recipe to make for lunch or supper. You can set it and forget it in the crockpot at lunch and it is ready for supper. Or if you want it for lunch, put it on in the morning and you will have something yummy, healthy, and delicious for lunch.

Leftovers

You can put the leftover chicken in a baggy and store in the freezer until you are ready to make foods such as quick and easy quesadillas, fajitas, casseroles, or yummy chicken salad. The leftover vegetables will freeze up great in a baggy. I like to use the vegetables in a stir fry or a pasta dish.

Sunday lunch

was probably my favorite time growing up. I have so many memories of my mom starting a roast and vegetables in the electric skillet before we went to church. After church, our house was filled with the smells of the yummy roast and veggies. Mom always made a yummy dessert the day before. Sunday lunches were the best at our house!

More tips:

For this recipe, I use a whole grass-fed chicken. I purchase all of my chicken from Buck Creek Meats. Since I am not a gardener, I purchase my vegetables from the local Farmer’s Market.
