Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 325ðF (163ðC).
-
Generously butter a shallow soufflé dish or baking dish to prevent sticking.
-
In a medium saucepan, combine the condensed milk and chopped semi-sweet chocolate.
-
Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth, about 5 minutes.
-
Gradually add the unsalted butter to the chocolate mixture, stirring until fully melted and incorporated.
-
Remove the saucepan from the heat.
-
Whisk in the milk until the mixture is uniform.
-
Beat in the egg yolks and 2 teaspoons of the vanilla extract.
-
Stir in the cooked long-grained rice until evenly coated with the chocolate custard.
-
Pour the mixture into the prepared soufflé dish.
-
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly loose.
-
Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack to room temperature.
-
Cover and refrigerate until well chilled, at least 2 hours.
-
In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream until it begins to thicken.
-
Add the remaining 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and the confectioners' sugar.
-
Continue beating until stiff peaks form.
-
Spoon or pipe the whipped cream over the top of the chilled pudding.
-
Using a vegetable peeler, scrape the piece of semi-sweet chocolate over the cream to create delicate chocolate curls.
-
Refrigerate until ready to serve.
