Preparation / Directions:
In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the half-and-half and rice and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally at the beginning and constantly the last few minutes to avoid scorching, for about 18 minutes. The rice should be soft, the mixture should be very creamy, and not all of the liquid should be absorbed. Remove from the heat and stir in the granulated sugar, mixing well.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, vanilla and cinnamon until blended. Add 1/2 cup (4 fl oz/125 ml) of the rice mixture, whisking to blend. Return the egg yolk-rice mixture to the saucepan and mix well. Add the butter and raisins and stir until evenly distributed. Pour the pudding into a 1-qt (1-l) serving bowl and let cool to room temperature. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and serve with whipped cream, if desired.
