Can I use light coconut milk instead of full-fat?

Oh honey, I wouldn’t recommend it The full-fat version gives that rich, creamy texture we all crave. Light coconut milk makes the pudding watery and sad - trust me, I learned the hard way.

How can I adjust the sweetness?

Easy, Start with 1/4 cup sugar, taste after cooking, then stir in more if needed. I sometimes use maple syrup instead - just add it at the end so the flavor stays bright.

Why does my rice pudding look thin right after cooking?

Don’t panic, It thickens beautifully as it cools. Give it 5-10 minutes off heat - if it’s still too thin for you, simmer on sauté mode for a couple minutes while stirring.

Can I make this ahead?

Absolutely, It keeps wonderfully in the fridge for 3 days. The flavors actually deepen overnight - just add a splash of milk when reheating to bring back the creamy texture.
