CREAMY VANILLA PUDDING RECIPES

Steps:

• In the Instant Pot, combine rice, sugar, salt, and milk.
• Select Sauté function and bring contents to a boil, stirring constantly to dissolve sugar. As soon as the mixture comes to a boil, cover and lock lid in place.
• Select Manual or Pressure Cook function on the Instant Pot and adjust to low pressure. Set cooking time for 16 minutes.
• While rice is cooking, whisk eggs with half and half and vanilla. When beeps sound, turn off pressure cooker, wait 10 minutes and then use a quick pressure release. Carefully remove the lid. Stir the rice in pot.
• Stir the egg mixture in to the pot. Select Saute and cook uncovered until mixture just starts to boil.
• Turn off pressure cooker. Stir in raisins.
• Serve immediately, or pour into servings dishes cool then chill. (Pudding will thicken as it cools, so you may want to add a little extra half and half if you’re serving it cold.) Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a medium heavy saucepan combine sugar and cornstarch. Add half-and-half. Cook and gently stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Remove from heat. Gradually stir 1 cup of the half-and-half mixture into egg yolks.
• Slowly whisk egg yolk mixture back into half-and-half mixture in saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil; reduce heat. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Remove from heat. Stir in butter, vanilla, and sea salt. Pour pudding into 6 individual serving bowls. Cover surface of pudding with plastic wrap. Let stand 45 minutes; serve warm or chill up to 24 hours before serving.
• Top pudding with heart shaped candies before serving, if desired.
