Creamy Old-Fashioned Rice Pudding

Creamy Old-fashioned rice pudding is a classic dessert that is both creamy and comforting. It is made with a simple combination of ingredients, including rice, milk and sugar.

This creamy old-fashioned rice pudding recipe is inspired by the KozyShack rice pudding that I love to buy at the grocery store. However, this homemade version is even better because it is made with all-natural ingredients. The rice pudding is also less sweet than the store-bought version, as only 1/2 cup of sugar is used. Most of the sweetness comes from the milk cooking down.

If you are looking for a delicious and easy-to-make dessert, I highly recommend this old-fashioned rice pudding recipe. It is sure to please everyone in your family.
