Nutella Brownie Explosion!
Do not be alarmed! There was no actual explosion. My tastebuds did explode in delight but nobody was harmed.

Guava Puff Pastry (Pastelillos de Guayaba)
I’m so homesick, guys. It’s ridiculous. I never thought I’d be homesick. But to be entirely honest, I’m only homesick for the food… Does that make me a horrible person?! Granted, I do miss my family and my husband’s family. I really do miss them a lot. They just aren’t as delicious as Guava Puff …

Homeade Salsa
This recipe came to me in a dream. In said dream, I had a bag of corn tortillas and no salsa. Let me be honest here, that dream was more of a nightmare. I woke up the following morning with the most intense craving for chips and salsa. A craving, you will be glad to …
Triple Chocolate Brownies
