Chocolate Rice Pudding

I don't remember where I got this recipe I think Betty Crocker

Growing up we always made rice pudding with our leftover rice. It was one of our favorite leftover recipes. But as I have gotten older I have always wondered about different flavored rice puddings. When I seen this recipe I thought all my life problems had been solved I mean CHOCOLATE + RICE PUDDING what could be better :) So if you ever come to my home when we are having rice for dinner don't be surprised to see a huge amount of rice cooking for my small family.... if your going to cook rice you HAVE to have leftovers for dessert :)

4c. cooked white rice
3/4 c. sugar
1/4 c. baking cocoa (I used dark chocolate but its good either way)
3 Tbsp. butter or margarine
1 tsp. vanilla
2 cans (12oz) evaporated milk

Spray 3 1/2 - 6 quart slow cooker with cooking spray. Mix all ingredients and put in cooker. Cover and cook on low for 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until liquid is absorbed. Stir before serving. Served warm or chilled.


can you tell I like cool whip lol.

I channeled almond joy when I made my last batch of chocolate rice pudding:
I added a smidgen of coconut extract
1/4 to 1/2 cup of coconut flakes
small dollop of cool whip
you can garnish this with so many things: toasted almonds, raspberries, strawberries, etc.

I tried it raw (uncooked) and its already delish! If your looking for a new treat to use things from your food storage. This is completely packaged for that! It calls for evaporated milk and I was out so I did 2/3 c nonfat dry milk with 2/3 c water to make 1 c of evaporated milk.

Hi my name is Carolyn and I am addicted to dark chocolate. I would much rather have that over milk chocolate any day!!! You know some things are meant to be together like peanut butter & jelly, ketchup & french fries, bread & butter, milk & cookies, mashed potatoes & gravy, macaroni & cheese, bacon & eggs etc....well I believe dark chocolate & fruit are meant to be together. SO I added dark chocolate chips to this recipe. I mean come on chocolate doesn't ask silly questions...chocolate understands right!!!



1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
3/4 cup flour
1 Tbsp. cornstarch
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
1/4 tsp. ground ginger
1/2 tsp. baking powder
smidge of nutmeg
smidge of allspice
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup diced mango (about 1 mango)
1 package dark chocolate chips or 2 cups

Preheat oven to 350F.

Mix the oats, flour, cornstarch, spices, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl

In a separate bowl, mix butter and sugars with a wooden spoon until light and fluffy. Add in egg and vanilla; mix until well combined.

Add the wet mixture into the oat mixture and stir until combined. Gently fold in the diced mango & chocolate chips.

Scoop out about 1 1 /2 Tbsp. of mixture, form into a loose ball, and place cookie dough balls on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 350° F for approximately 15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove the cookies and place them on a cooling rack. Makes about 2 dozen cookies.
