Ingredients
- 1 cup Arborio rice (rinsed)
- 1 (13.5 oz) can full-fat coconut milk
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Shredded coconut or chocolate shavings (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Rinse Arborio rice under cold water until water runs clear. This removes excess starch and prevents gummy texture.
- Add rinsed rice, coconut milk, whole milk, cocoa powder, sugar, chocolate chips, salt, and water to Instant Pot. Whisk vigorously to dissolve cocoa powder and prevent clumps.
- Secure lid and set valve to sealing. Cook on HIGH pressure for 10 minutes using Manual/Pressure Cook mode. Let pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then quick-release remaining pressure.
- Open lid and stir in vanilla extract. Let pudding sit uncovered for 5-10 minutes to thicken (it will continue absorbing liquid). If too thick, stir in 1-2 tbsp milk.
- Spoon into bowls and top with shredded coconut or chocolate shavings. Serve warm or chilled.
