- 4 cups whole milk
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions

In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup arborio rice, 4 cups whole milk, and 0.5 cup sugar. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, then reduce heat to low.

Simmer the rice mixture, stirring frequently, until the rice is tender and the mixture thickens to a creamy consistency, about 25-30 minutes. The pudding should coat the back of a spoon.
