About this Cook
I'm a Cuban-American living in England. I'm originally from Miami, but I've lived all over the U.S. and abroad.
My favorite things to cook
Anything new! There's nothing like the accomplishment of cooking something new and having it turn out delicious!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Being Cuban, I love cooking anything with that caribbean flavor... black beans and rice, picadillo, Cuban sandwiches!!!
My cooking triumphs
I just made my first Christmas meal, and it was a hit!!! Everyone loved everything and asked me for the recipes!!
My cooking tragedies
I have yet to have one big tragedy, just a bunch of small ones that turn out for a not bad, but not tasty meal.

Best Brownies
LOVE LOVE LOVE them! They're not fudgy, which is perfect because I hate fudge brownies. They're not cakey either, they're the perfect blend!! Without the icing it was amazing.

Toasted Coconut, Pecan, and Caramel Pie
Great recipe, except I omitted the caramel. The first time I made the pies, I actually forgot the caramel on one, so I ended up doing one pie with the caramel and the other without. After reading the reviews saying it was too sweet, I have to agree. The caramel one was much too sweet, but the other was perfect! I use the recipe now to make a coconut and pecan cream pie. Everyone has loved it and asked me for the recipe!! If you think it's too sweet, just don't add the caramel... delicious!!!
