For the first time EVER I find a recipe that makes more than what is specified on the recipe. The recipe states it makes 6 cups, I can confirm that it makes up 15 cups, as a matter of fact, there was so much that I served it in small bowls to get the most out of it. We were going to have rice pudding for a week!

I can give or take on a rice pudding. Coconut with mango on the top was enticing. Erica loved it! Easy enough to make but there is a long waiting factor before you can serve. Too much effort for a dessert that didn’t have the wow factor.

Enjoy
