Rice Pudding

Have you ever cooked a dish and made to much rice? Well do I have a recipe to solve that problem. Growing up, my mom made some super yummy treat, but one of my all time favorites happen to be rice pudding. Its funny how each one of us kids have our favorite and when we go home for a visit, my mom knows just what treat to make to please each of us kids! What a great mom!!
When I made the soup I posted yesterday, I cooked a little extra rice and surprise my kids with some warm rice pudding. The picture is not the greatest, they were in a hurry to eat it, but you get the idea. We do like it warm, but you are free to cook it and refrigerate it for later or the next day. This was the first time I have ever made it for my kids and Jeremy has asked me for the last few days when I am going to make it again!

Rice Pudding
McCain Family Favorite

5 Tbsp corn starch
1 cup sugar
1/4 tsp salt
2 1/2 cups milk
3/4 cup half and half cream
3 egg yolks
2 Tbsp butter
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups cooked rice

In a small bowl mix the yolks together. Mix cornstarch, sugar and salt in a 3-quart saucepan. Add milk and cream and cook over medium heat until smooth and thick, stirring constantly. Pour small amount of hot mixture into egg yolks: blend thoroughly, then pour mixture back into saucepan. Doing this will prevent the egg yolks from cooking to fast when adding them to the saucepan. Cook another 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and add butter and vanilla. Once butter is melted, add the rice and stir.  Pour into dishes and enjoy!

Bakery style Strawberry Muffins

New recipe! Can you even believe it?! Kirsti and I decided we need to get back in the habit of sharing our favorite recipes by sharing at least one a month so here you go:   I’m starting off with these scrumptious strawberry muffins. Extra large and fluffy, these muffins are bursting with strawberry bits and topped with the most delicious strawberry glaze. If you end up with extra glaze, go ahead and drizzle some extra.  No judgement here :)   Even if you already love the previous strawberry muffins on our blog, you need to try these- they are the only ones I'll be making from here on out.  They're that good!

Chocolate Covered Cream Balls

Several years ago, I sampled a Milk Chocolate Coconut at See's Candies.  It was love at first bite.  Ever since then I have made a mandatory stop every time I went into the mall to get one of these delicious chocolates.  I love them so much !  However, there are two things I didn't like about them.  1) I had to go to the mall to get them, and 2) they are SO expensive.  I think the last time I was there I paid about 75 cents for 1 chocolate.

Healthier Chocolate Banana Muffins

 I know, I know.  We already have like 5 banana muffins posted on this blog.  I have put off posting this recipe because of that fact, but here's the thing.  While those muffins are all delicious and great in their own way, when I have ripe bananas you know I'm either making these muffins or banana bread.  More often, these muffins because they are perfect for a grab and go snack or breakfast.  My family LOVES these muffins! They have such a deep chocolate flavor and are so moist.  What my family doesn't think about, but I love, are that these muffins are healthier than your average muffin.  They are made with whole wheat flour, coconut oil, greek yogurt for extra protein, and have less sugar that most other muffins.  These are best warm (they can be reheated in the microwave for 10 seconds) and those bites with melted chocolate chips are the absolute best!
