Place the rice with 2 cups of water and sugar in the Express Pressure Cooker® over high heat. Close the Express Pressure Cooker® and put the pressure regulator on, place it on the stove over high flame for about 25 minutes or until a constant steam comes out, lower the flame to medium and cook for 10 minutes. Remove the Express Pressure Cooker® from the heat, let it cool, remove the pressure regulator, open the Express Pressure Cooker® and voila! Drain and set aside. Meanwhile, in another pot over medium heat, place the milk with the cinnamon stick and the strips of orange. Let it slightly boil for 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove and discard the cinnamon and the strips of orange. Integrate the condensed milk, sugar, butter, and cream for whipping, and constantly mix with a wooden spoon to prevent sticking to the bottom of the pot. Let it boil for a few minutes and remove from the heat. Add the cooked rice and mix until fully integrated. Transfer the rice to a baking dish and let it cool. Serve in small glasses garnished with cinnamon to taste.
