Recipe(tried): Rice Imperatrice (rice pudding using candied fruit)

This is my favorite of all rice puddings:

RICE IMPERATRICE

1 1/2 cups finely chopped mixed candied fruits
1/3 cup Kirsch
1/2 cup uncooked rice
2 1/12 cups milk, divided use
4 egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
12 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tbsp. unflavored gelatin
2 tbsp. cold water
1 cup heavy cream, whipped
2/3 cup currant jelly

Marinate candied fruit in Kirsch.

Cook rice in 1 3/4 cups milk over low heat until tender, about 40 minutes.

Combine egg yolks with sugar, remaining 3/4 cup milk, and vanilla in top of double boiler. Cook over boiling water, stirring constantly, until thickened.

Soften gelatin in 2 tablespoons cold water and stir into milk-egg mixture. Add rice and blend well. Chill until mixture begins to set.

Fold in 1 cup of the marinated candied fruit and whipped cream. Arrange remaining candied fruit attractively on bottom of tall fancy 2-quart mold. Spoon rice mixture into mold. Chill at least 2 hours.

To serve, unmold onto chilled serving plate. Garnish with currant jelly.

Sorry, I didn't realize this wasn't a baked pudding as you requested but I'll send it anyway.
