Riskrem is the Norwegian Christmas dessert. So very delicious it is worth waiting a year for. Cook rice and salt in milk in double boiler until rice is soft and mixture is thick, about 1½ hours. Add sugar and almond extract. Chill. Add the chopped almonds and 1 whole one.

Stir in whipped cream. Serve with red fruit sauce (raspberry or strawberry or lingonberry).
