I’ve never really liked rice pudding, but Angeline is a huge fan. So when my friend Kari created this Easy Homemade Rice Pudding Recipe for me, I knew that I needed to share it with you guys – and of course, my dear daughter, Angeline. Kari’s Great Aunt Betty always made this recipe, as she explains it, it had raisins in it,it was cold…and she thought that it was totally gross! Kari decided to give this classic comfort food a try with her own spin on things, and she totally fell in love with this recipe. It’s best served either warm or at room temperature, and she says…”I could eat it all!”
