The weekend is the best time to go to Costco and be a food critic (aka freeloader! :D). So many samples!!! So if you’re a member or know anyone who is, this tip is for YOU!!!
Champorado!
It’s a chocolate rice porridge!
Ingredients:
- 5 cups water
- 1 cup sweet rice
- about 1 regular hershey bar of chocolate
- evaporated milk & sugar (to adjust sweetness to personal preference)
Directions:
- Bring water to medium-high boil.
- Put in rice. Let rice cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Melt chocolate while waiting. we steamed the chocolate in a glass container. Microwave is probably fine, too.
- Mix in chocolate into rice after 15 minutes. The chocolate will thicken the concoction.
- Keep stirring until the champorado is of a porridge-like thickness.
- Serve and mix sugar and evaporated milk for desired sweetness and consistency.
Enjoy!

Ube

Mainly adding evaporated milk and sugar.
