Danish Rice Pudding

---

This recipe came to me from my husbands family. It was their custom and ours to hide a white nut in the pudding and whomever found the nut received a gift. Usually a box of chocolates for the kids or a bottle of wine for the adults. The game was to keep the nut hidden in your mouth until all the pudding was consumed.
