2 tablespoons butter, melted |
1 cup raisins |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/2-1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
3 -4 tablespoons confectioners' sugar (10x powdered sugar) |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon, mix until well blended, and set aside.
2. In a large (2 quart) bowl, beat egg yolks until light colored.
3. Add sugar and spice mixture and beat well.
4. Add milk and beat well.
5. Add cooked rice and mix well.

7. Pour mixture in to a buttered 3-quart ovenproof casserole dish or baking pan.
8. In a small bowl, beat egg whites until rounded peaks form.
9. Beat Confectioner's sugar into egg whites until whites are glossy and stiff.
10. Fold beaten egg whites in to rice mixture.
