Start by making the custard: combine 2 cups of half and half, 1 box of vanilla cook and serve pudding, and 3 eggs in a bowl.

2

Mix the custard ingredients until well combined, just long enough to blend them together.

3

In a separate casserole dish, add 1 cup of hot cooked rice and 1 stick of unsalted butter; mix until the butter is incorporated into the rice.

4

Add 1/2 cup of sugar to the rice and mix well to sweeten it.

5

Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon of nutmeg to the custard mixture and stir to combine.

6

Prepare Craisins by soaking them in boiling water for 10 minutes, then drain and dust with flour to keep them buoyant.

7

Combine the Craisins with the rice and custard mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

8

Pour the custard mixture over the rice and Craisins in the casserole dish and give it a gentle stir to combine.

9

Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately 1 hour, uncovered.
