I think this is the recipe. I had remembered seeing it before. Only it's called Italian Rice Pie and it's served at Easter in Italy. Is this the one?
Italian Rice Pie
9 eggs
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 pounds ricotta cheese
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup cooked white rice
1 (15 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
Directions
Beat eggs in very large bowl. Add sugar, mixing well. Stir in cheese and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Add heavy cream and stir. Fold in cooked rice and crushed pineapple.
Pour into a 9 x 13 inch buttered pan.
Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for one hour. Check by inserting clean knife into center. If the pie is done, knife will come out clean. Top should be golden brown. Refrigerate until thoroughly cooled.
Hope it works for you. 8-)
