    5 cups (1.25 L) whole milk
    1 cup (250 mL) short-grain rice
    1 cup (250 mL) granulated sugar
    1 tbsp (15 mL) vanilla
    1/4 tsp (1 mL) salt
    3 egg yolks
    1/2 cup (125 mL) whipping cream
    1 tbsp (15 mL) grated lemon rind
    1/4 cup (50 mL) lemon juice
    8 oz (250 g) white chocolate, chopped
    Cranberry Compote:
    1/2 cup (125 mL) dried cranberries
    1/3 cup (75 mL) cranberry cocktail
    2 tsp (10 mL) grated lemon rind
    2 tsp (10 mL) lemon juice

Preparation:

Cranberry Compote: In saucepan, bring cranberries, cranberry cocktail and lemon rind and juice to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and puffed, about 4 minutes. Let cool; refrigerate until cold, about 1 hour. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate in airtight container for up to 2 days.)

In heavy saucepan, bring milk, rice, sugar, vanilla and salt to boil over medium heat. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat, stirring often, until tender and most of the liquid is absorbed, about 30 minutes.

In bowl, whisk egg yolks with cream; whisking constantly, whisk in 1/2 cup (125 mL) of the rice mixture. Stir back into saucepan along with lemon rind and juice; cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in chocolate until melted.

Spoon 3/4 cup (175 mL) into each dessert dish. Top each with about 1 tbsp (15 mL) compote. Serve warm.

Additional Information

  • Tip: To make ahead of time, transfer pudding to large bowl; place plastic wrap directly on surface. Refrigerate for up to 24 hours. To heat, stir in 1/2 cup (125 mL) milk or 10% or whipping cream; microwave at high until hot, 4 minutes, stirring once.
