### Arroz con Leche with a Twist | Easy Mexican Dessert Recipe

Are you a fan of arroz con leche? It’s a delicious traditional Mexican dessert, but in this video, we’re going to give it a twist! Instead of the usual way of preparing it, we’ll be cooking the rice separately and creating a creamy reduction that will take this dessert to the next level.

To start, we’ll steam the rice until it’s perfectly cooked. Adding three times the amount of water, a cinnamon stick, and allowing the heat to do its magic. On the other hand, we’ll mix milk, cream, and sugar to create a reduction that will enhance the flavor of the dessert. This reduction will need to be carefully monitored for approximately 25-30 minutes.

Next, we’ll combine the steamed rice with the reduction in a bowl. The rice will have a delightful aroma from the cinnamon stick, so there’s no need for powdered cinnamon. We’ll then move on to making soy flakes, which will give our arroz con leche a fantastic texture. In a non-stick skillet, we’ll pour soy milk and create a thin layer that will slowly reduce and become crispy.

Now it’s time to plate our dessert! We’ll add a touch of white chocolate to the rice, giving it a hint of sweetness without overpowering the flavors. And to make it even more exciting, we’ll sprinkle the soy flakes on top, creating a surprise element. Finally, no arroz con leche is complete without a scoop of delicious vanilla ice cream.
