Instructions
- 1 Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Immediately reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, uncovered and at a slow simmer, stirring occasionally, until soft and most of the water has been absorbed, about 30 minutes.
- 2 Add 2 cups milk and sugar. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil.
- 3 Stir remaining 1/2 cup milk and cornstarch together in a bowl; add to boiling rice-milk mixture along with vanilla. Stir until well combined, then remove from the heat.
- 4 Ladle into individual serving dishes and sprinkle with cinnamon. Let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes, then refrigerate until well chilled, at least 4 hours.
