Equipment

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup long-grain white rice
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • ½ tablespoon cocoa powder
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract or ½ teaspoon of crème de cacao
  • 2 tablespoons semisweet chocolate chips
US - Metric

Instructions

  • Add the rice, milk, sugar, and salt to a 1-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and the mixture thickens, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the cocoa powder and vanilla.
  • Add the chocolate chips and stir until fully melted and smooth.
  • Transfer to a bowl, let cool for 10 minutes, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Stir Frequently: Stirring every minute or so prevents the rice from sticking to the pan and helps the pudding thicken evenly.
  • Control the Consistency: If the pudding thickens too much as it cools, stir in a tablespoon or two of milk until it reaches your desired texture.
  • Serving Temperature: This chocolate rice pudding can be enjoyed warm or chilled. The flavor deepens as it rests.
 
If doubling this recipe use a 2-quart saucepan.
