You cannot go to any gathering around here without someone bringing the sweet rice. This recipe is a sweet treat, with a rich & creamy texture. I've also attached a photo of my little one enjoying a taste of her momma's sweet rice :)

I had some trouble getting the rice to cook evenly. I think I needed to use a bigger pot.

This was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think I just need to use less sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of rice pudding, but this was really good! The sweetness was just right, and the texture was creamy and smooth.

This was my first time making arroz doce, and it turned out amazing! I used basmati rice, and it cooked perfectly. The coconut milk and cinnamon gave it such a rich flavor.
