Biko (Sweet Rice Pudding)

My love for rice is through the roof.

I mean, other than being Asian,

Lately Rice have been the best to eat on my meals.

It's filling and healthy (With right portions)

I love it for dessert too!

I've been missing this Filipino dessert for a long long time.

I can't even remember the last time I had it.

I'm so proud of myself that I know how to make it now.

Well, It's actually not that hard.

It's just a lot of mixing and making this takes time and patience.

But it's definitely worth it!
