Slow Cooker Rice Pudding -Small Batch Little Dipper Crock Pot Recipe (and Full Size Recipe)

Cutting back a little on sweets after the holidays? How about an easy dessert that only makes two servings... This Little Dipper Slow Cooker Rice Pudding leaves no tempting leftovers and offers true portion control:@) This was a very flavorful little pudding, you will know the vanilla and cinnamon are in there! I had some golden raisins on-hand and used them, they are very mild and sweet. Overall review: Don't hesitate to try this folks, and an extra bonus, it's always fun to find another use for the Little Dipper Crock Pot.

My Little Dipper will eventually come to a boil. So I chose to remove the lid and stir every 45 minutes. 
This did a good job of controlling the temperature so that it didn't begin to bubble/boil until the last 15 minutes.
I'll list my small batch recipe, you can click on Slow Cooking Perfected for the larger, regular size recipe.
