There are lots of great crock pot desserts recipes to try but one of my mother's favorite recipes that she has made in winter for as long as I can remember is rice pudding.   I have adapted her recipe for the crock pot slow cooker.  A 3.5 quart size crock pot would be ideal for this recipe but you can use a larger one, just cook for a little less time.

Rice Pudding

2  1/2 cups cooked rice
1  3/4 cups milk
4 tabs brown sugar
2 tabs soft butter
1/2 teasp vanilla essence
1/2 teasp ground cinnamon
1/2 teasp ground nutmeg
3 large eggs, whisked well
1/2 cup sultanas
Combine all ingredients and mix well.  Pour into the buttered base of the crock pot and stir. Put on the lid and cook on high for 1.5 - 2 hours. Stir again once in the first half hour.

Serve with stewed or canned fruit and ice cream.

This crock pot desserts recipe is so quick to cook so you can put it on in the later afternoon for that evenings meal.  If you are looking for other great recipes for winter warming dishes then try Amazon for The Ski House Cookbook: Warm Winter Dishes for Cold Weather Fun.
