Who couldn't use a little help from "grandma" in the kitchen? Abuelita, which translated means "grandma," is a cinnamon-infused Mexican chocolate that "spices" up this holiday favorite -- making every moment special.

These rich Coffee Flan Cupcakes have a unique flavor combination. You'll love the coffee accent of this sweet treat. Drizzle with Dulce de Leche to serve.

Alfajores are a favorite treat of sweet manjar or dulce de leche (caramelized milk) sandwiched between buttery shortbread cookies. These originated in Andalucia, Spain during the Moorish Conquest of the Iberian Peninsula, and have many cousins in Latin America, especially Ecuador, Peru and Argentina. The rich buttery dough varies from country to country, made with just all-purpose flour, a mixture of flour and corn starch or yucca flour.
