Creamy Rice Pudding

3 cups cooked rice
1/3 cup golden raisins
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 1/3 cups milk, divided use
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup halved maraschino cherries, drained

1. Combine rice, raisins, salt and 3 cups milk in 3-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat 25 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add butter to hot mixture; mix well.
2. Combine sugar, eggs and remaining 1/3 cup milk; add to pudding, stirring constantly. Cook 2 to 3 minutes or until mixture thickens and coats a metal spoon. Remove from heat; add vanilla.
