This is the easiest and tastiest rice pudding ever!!! I also substituted heavy cream for 1/2 of the milk and left out the lemon zest. It was DECADENT!!! I served it to hungry deer hunters in my restaurant for dessert this afternoon! It got raves all around...and they are tough customers! Thanks for a sure winner!!!

Super easy recipe! For the milk and sugar, I substituted 1 can each of FF evaporated and FF condensed milk. I also put in a couple of strips each of orange and lime peel to cook with the pudding instead of the lemon zest afterwards. Also I used cardamom and only a dash of cinnamon. Had to work with what I had on hand. My family loved this dessert and I was happy to find a new and quick way to use up leftover rice.

Wow, what a great recipe! I substituted a one cup of heavy cream for one of the cups of milk. Can you say "rich"?! I didn't think it would "work", but it thickened nicely. I omitted the lemon rind and putting the cinnamon on top. This rice pudding is addictive!

This was my first taste ever of rice pudding, and I was a little skeptical, but I was pleasantly surprised. It was very tasty. I halved the recipe and omitted the lemon, but still enjoyed it. It's very rich and a little bit goes a long way. Thanks for a great recipe, chia! I know how I'll be using up leftover rice from now on!

This is the first time I've ever made rice pudding, but it definitely won't be the last. I'll be sure to make extra rice in the future so I'll have some leftovers for this! I substituted 1/2 cup of cream for 1/2 cup of the milk (made it even richer tasting). For the rice, I used the leftovers from one of my recipes #91565 Southern-style Honey Rice (shameless plug for my own recipes) It already contains cinnamon, so I didn't even have to add any. This is really very tasty; I had some for breakfast this morning!

Great way to use up leftover rice. Used regular white rice, next time I'll leave out the lemon, but it was yummy. Definately making it again and again!

I used this recipe to serve a very large women's group at my church and it was a hit. The only change I made was to cook it with a cinnamon stick and when done remove it and sprinkle sugar and cinnamon on top. It made a better presentation in the little cups we served it in.

FANTASTIC!!! I have made this twice this week - can't get enough of it! DH told me to throw out all my other rice pudding recipes.

I have made this several times at home and while I think it's awesome as written (and so easy that I've already committed it to memory)I do have a couple of comments. First of all, I've also made this with freshly cooked rice (when I had a mad craving and no leftovers!)Secondly, halving the sugar doesn't affect the taste. Finally, I substitute currants for the raisins, which makes for a tarter flavor. The lemon zest definitely makes it, and I would recommend doubling it--leftovers are really good cold. In fact, my roommate prefers this chilled rather than hot, something that Tyler Florence suggests in his introduction to the recipe, even though it's hard to resist just out of the pot! Thanks for posting it; I specifically searched for "Rockin' Rice Pudding" to make sure if it was in here already, and if it wasn't I was going to post it myself!
