I am looking for a rice pudding recipe that comes out of the oven with a thick layer of egg custard on top. I remember this pudding as a child and can't find the recipe. Thanks much.

Creamy Rice Pudding
2 quarts milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup regular long grain rice
1/2 cup dark seedless raisins
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 12-oz. cans evaporated milk
4 large eggs
ground cinnamon
Fresh or Marachino cherries for garnish
1. In a 4-quart saucepan over medium heat, heat milk
and salt to simmering; stir in rice. Reduce heat
to low; cover and simmer 45 to 50 minutes until
rice is very tender and mixture is thick, stirring
occasionally. Stir in raisins.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 13" by 9"
baking dish; set in large roasting pan.
3. In large bowl, with wire whisk or fork, beat
sugar, vanilla extract, evaporated milk, and eggs
until blended; gradually stir in hot rice mixture.
4. Place baking dish in pan on oven rack; carefully
pour rice mixture into baking dish(mixture will
almost fill dish). Fill roasting pan with boiling
water to come halfway up sides of baking dish.
Bake 40 to 45 minutes until knife inserted in center
of pudding come out clean.
5. Make cinnamon lattice on top of pudding.(Lattice
pattern on top of pudding using ruler to keep the
diagonal lines neat) See Note
Note: Cinnamon Lattice: Hold ruler diagonally across
1 corner of baking dish, about 1-inch in from
edge of pudding. Holding cinnamon jar in other
hand, evenly shake spice through sprinkler hole
along ruler edge. Shake excess spice off ruler.
Repeat at 1-inch intervals...........
