Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Arborio rice
- 600 milliliters Whole milk
- 150 milliliters Heavy cream
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams White chocolate
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 70 grams Amaretti cookies
- 10 grams Butter
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the Arborio rice, whole milk, heavy cream, sugar, and a pinch of salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
Cook for 30-35 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan. The mixture should thicken, and the rice should become tender.
Meanwhile, finely chop the white chocolate and set it aside.
Once the rice is fully cooked and creamy, remove the saucepan from the heat.
Stir in the butter, vanilla extract, and the chopped white chocolate. Mix until the chocolate is fully melted and incorporated.
Spoon the rice pudding into 4 individual serving dishes or ramekins and let them cool slightly.
In a small bowl, crush the amaretti cookies into coarse crumbs. Sprinkle them generously over each pudding just before serving.
Serve warm or chilled, as desired. Optionally, garnish with extra amaretti cookies or a dusting of powdered sugar.
