I share my method for making bala baiana, the viral Brazilian candy that I grew up eating. I walk through cooking the filling until it pulls from the pan, rolling it into balls, dipping toothpick tips in butter before inserting them, and cooking the syrup to the hard-crack stage. Then I show how to work quickly—tilting the pan and twirling the candies in the syrup to create that signature crackly shell. I even brought back authentic paper cups from Brazil to serve them in.

every week.

I loved it… until I didn’t. I think I just reached my limit.

Now every year for his birthday, my husband asks for it — but I make it my way, with brigadeiro on top.

And every time I take a bite… it still tastes like home.

Which would you choose — the classic version or the brigadeiro one? 👇#tastyrecollections #bolodecenouracomchocolate #braziliancarrotcake #carrotcake #brigadeiro

My kids have been asking for these every weekend… and I get it.

Fluffy banana pancakes with melted chocolate in the center — it’s hard to say no.

What would your kids pick: plain pancakes or chocolate inside? 👇

Crispy coconut crust, tender inside, and that mango salsa on top…

You can pan fry or air fry — both work.

Have you tried coconut on fish before?

This mango salsa is one of my go-to recipes when the weather gets warm.

It’s fresh, bright, and comes together in minutes with simple ingredients like mango, red onion, bell peppers, lemon juice, and herbs.

Perfect for spring and summer — I love it with grilled chicken, fish, or just chips.

What would you serve this with? #tastyrecollections #easyrecipes #mangosalsa #summervibes☀️ #quickandeasymeals

Ground beef and potatoes is one of those dinners I make when I need something quick but still good.

Nothing fancy. Just really satisfying.

The sauce is the best part — add the slurry little by little until it’s as saucy as you like. #tastyrecollections #comfortfood #easyrecipes #weeknightdinners #groundbeef

There’s something about cracking into crème brûlée that never gets old.

That thin caramel shell… and the silky custard underneath.

This one has dulce de leche in it, which somehow makes it even better.

I’ve made a lot of carrot cakes over the years, but this one might be my favorite.

One bowl.
No mixer.
Soft, fluffy, full of carrots, walnuts, warm spices, and a little orange zest.

The glaze is the fun part — you can literally paint it or draw on it. Plus it tastes pretty good! #carrotcake #easterdessert #springbaking #tastyrecollections #onebowlbaking

Some nights you just need dinner to be easy.

Three ingredients.
Five minutes.
Straight from the freezer.

You can thaw the fish quickly by running it under cold water for a few minutes, or let it sit in a bowl of cold water while you prep.

Crispy, golden, and zero drama at the table.

After a long day… make this.

My mom used to take me to a restaurant in Rio that served their rice like this every single time.

I couldn’t have been older than five… and for some reason, I thought it was the prettiest, coolest thing in the world.

Just rice pressed into a bowl and flipped over.

What a random memory to still remember.

Now I want to hear yours — what’s a tiny childhood food memory that stuck with you? 👇

I totally forgot to mention in the video that I used lemon pepper 🙃
But Italian seasoning works beautifully too if that’s what you have.

Don’t skip the rest time.
Don’t rush the sear.
And don’t flip them ten times.

Golden outside.
Tender inside.
Exactly how pork chops should be.

Save this for when you need a dinner that feels impressive but isn’t.

After school, my friends and I would flip our back

After school, my friends and I would flip our backpacks upside down looking for coins. Whatever we could find. These were 10 cents each, and we’d usually share them. It felt like the biggest treat.

Now I make them at home with just condensed milk, butter, and egg yolk. That’s it. So simple. So nostalgic.

They make the sweetest little gifts and are perfect for birthday parties.

Traditionally, they’re topped with a whole clove — but you always remove it before eating. It’s just for decoration.

My grandma, who made these for every one of my birthdays, would use tiny pieces of colorful gummies instead. That way kids could pop the whole thing in their mouth without worrying about biting into a clove.

Soft, sweet, and still worth flipping a backpack for. 🤍
