Quick, easy and delicious! I added a little shredded coconut and used Basmati rice.

Use about the same recipe, but change the following: use 1/4 tsp cinnamon and 1/2 tsp cardamon powder and 1/4 tsp ginger powder and make "drunken raisens." The raisens prefer to bathe (cover them up and drink Captin Morgan's spiced rum in the microwave for a couple of mintues. They exit stumbling around the bowl. Throw them in there with no mercy. Subsitute half and half (only 2 cups for a richer pudding or 2% low fat, if on a low fat diet, but you will regret it, so cheat!

This is one of the best rice puddings out there. If you haven't tried this then you are obviously still searching for the gretest rice pudding.
