"This rich, creamy slow baked rice pudding recipe is the ultimate version of the classic comfort food. The old-fashioned method of slow cooking the rice in milk gives the vanilla custard an incredible silky texture and home cooked flavor. This rice pudding recipe is wonderful for entertaining guests. Just slip the casserole into the oven an hour before they arrive to give the house an irresistible aroma and then serve a fantastic dessert later...."
