Arroz Con Leche Toppings Bar
Confession:  I originally planned to make arroz con leche (rice pudding for my non-Spanish speaking friends) with fresh whipped cream but that didn't work out so well.  I have been dreaming of fresh whipped cream forever but never tried to make it and the one time I do try, it bombed!  Ah well, it happens!  Maybe I was impatient or maybe I didn't have the right tools but I plan on experimenting till I get it right!  So, I was sitting in my kitchen bummed and started to brainstorm how I could do justice to the arroz con leche recipe I got from tomaleche.com because it is one of my favorite desserts... and it hit me - I should do a toppings bar!  This is perfect for rice pudding fans that are adventurous!  Set one up for your next Holiday dinner or potluck!

I tasted arroz con leche for the first time at a Cuban restaurant and LOVED it. Although I'm trying to eat less rice, it's hard to pass up arroz con leche.
