Confession: I’m a Cookie Monster in disguise 🤭 and these Red Velvet White Chocolate Chip Cookies have had me in a chokehold since the holidays! If you remember, I was testing the recipe back then and made a happy mistake by using dark chocolate cocoa powder. I fear that this mistake made these cookies AMAZING! It’s definitely worth a try! #cookiestagram #homebaking

Hearty Lasagna Soup since this cold weather is still kicking our 🍑 … This is hands down one of the best one pot meals that you can make. Cheat code - add some lemon zest to the ricotta cheese and drizzle with Extra Virgin olive oil. You’ll thank me later 😉 #lasagnasoup #onepotmeals #mealprepideas #souprecipe

Giving coquito as gifts is a Christmas tradition that I always look forward to! I love seeing the smiles of my friends and family whenever I pull up with the coquito bottle! You already know what time it is! Also, does anyone else struggle with making a bow as much as me? I learn every year … and quickly forget. Comment below and let me know if you’re gifting coquito this year!

The holidays are not complete without some delicious homemade Coquito! One of my favorite traditions is making a few batches of coquito and giving them away to friends and family! Coquito especially is simply delicious and the perfect way to share some holiday cheer. The coconut and the spices are exactly what the holidays are about. 🎄Buen Provecho & cheers!

The creamiest Mac & Cheese that you can make this holiday season! It’s insanely delicious and worth the try. My Ninja Food Processor also makes shredding the cheese extremely easy! #CookingTips #HolidayRecipes #MacandCheese

Peruvian Style Ají Verde Sauce made with fresh garlic, cilantro, mayonnaise, jalapeños and most importantly— AJÍ AMARILLO PASTE! This is hands down the best dipping sauce that you can make this holiday season. 🙌🏽

Anyone else preparing for the holidays? My Thanksgiving & Noche Buena prep includes making Homemade Empanada Dough! Let’s face it, I can never make enough empanadas to make my family happy, but that doesn’t mean that I’ll ever give up! My empanadas are simply too good to leave any behind! 😉 Making the dough is easier than you think! All you need is all purpose flour, baking powder, salt, butter, and cold water! You can also use oil instead of butter — but the butter gives you the perfect flaky golden crust 🤌🏽 What’s your favorite empanada flavor? Comment below!
