Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
-
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to prevent sticking, until the rice is tender and creamy.

Drizzle with chocolate sauce just before serving.

Note
For the chocolate sauce, melt 1/2 cup chopped dark chocolate with 1 tablespoon coconut oil or plant-based butter, stirring until smooth.
If you prefer a thicker consistency, simmer the rice mixture for an additional 5-10 minutes, adding a splash more milk if needed.
You can omit the rum for a non-alcoholic version, or replace it with rum extract for flavor without the alcohol.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop with a splash of milk to restore creaminess.
For added texture, garnish with toasted coconut flakes, chopped nuts, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
