Hillbilly R(ice) Cream

Leftover rice, what do you do with it?

In my never ending quest to eat rice in something new, I created a type of cheap and easy ice cream or ice milk if you will.

2 cups cooked rice (can be leftover)
1/3 cup milk
1/4 cup raisins
2 tablespoons vanilla flavoring
3 tablespoons sugar

In a small bowl mix everything together. This should look a bit a thick. After everything is well blended, taste it and alter to your liking. Take a fork and start mashing. The goal is break some of the rice down into a paste. Stir it all again and stick in the freezer.

You will freeze for about 20-30 minutes, making sure you stir every 10 minutes. If you freeze it too long, you will get a glob of frozen rice (YUK). You want it to begin setting up, while at the same time staying loose enough to eat with a spoon.

When it has frozen to the consistency you like, dish it up and serve it. You can garnish with a sprinkling of chocolate powder or sprinkles.

My suggestion would be to mix this up after supper and let it freeze while you are cleaning up the kitchen. Then when you are done, this will be done and you can have a treat for cleaning the kitchen up that night, instead of the next morning. I know you are guilty, aren't we all!

All the best!
