Creamy Burrito Casserole
Satisfy your craving for something different tonight. It’s good and fairly easy. This is stuff I usually have on hand too.
Spicy Mexican Cookies (Chocolate)
If you’re looking for a chocolate cookie with a real kick, look no further. These cookies are a perfect marriage of chocolate and spicy. They are firm, but chewy-melt-in-your-mouth. For comparison, I lean toward “medium” heat when it comes to salsa. This recipe is adapted from an excellent food blog called Baking Bites.
Polvorones de Chocolate (Mexican Chocolate Cookies)
I found this recipe in a Mexican cooking magazine called “Panaderia Mexicana Tradicional”. The recipe was originally written in Spanish and the measurements were in grams. I translated the recipe into English and converted the measurements to accomodate the American kitchen. Living in Texas, we have a lot of Mexican bakeries! I love going into the panaderia by the farmer’s market. I love Mexican pastries because they are not too sweet. This cookie is one of my favorites!
Galletas Elena (Mexican Cookies)
This came from Elena Zelayeta’s Elena’s Secrets of Mexican Cooking. She claims, though, that she is not the Elena of the title, but that this is a popular cookie in Mexico. Kids like the nonpareils
mexican chocolate cake
Not only is this cake super easy to make you can impress all of your vegan friends. Very elegant looking with the chocolate glaze and dipped strawberries. es muy bien! (cooking and prep times do not include cooling and drying)
