Rice Pudding

I found this recipe on Mel's Kitchen Cafe. It is by far the BEST rice pudding recipe I have ever tasted. In fact, if any of you know what Kozy Shack Rice Pudding is, that is what this tastes like (if you chill it before eating).

3/4 cup Arborio rice, rinsed (kind of pricey, but definitely worth it!!)
6 cups whole milk
2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup sugar
pinch of salt
1/4 cup heavy cream (this recipe may be a reason why I'm getting chubby:))

In a medium saucepan, combine rice, milk, vanilla, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; reduce heat and simmer, stirring frequently, until rice is tender and liquid has absorbed, about 40-45 minutes. (It took mine between 1 hour and 1 hour 15 minutes: I didn't cover it while it simmered because her recipe didn't say to, but next time I may try covering it and see if it's done more quickly)

Stir in heavy cream and serve warm, or chill it and then serve.
