A Cozy Kitchen

This blog is a delightful blend of hip-hop vibes, sugar, butter, and flour. I launched it during a time when my job didn’t provide much creative satisfaction. After several years of dedication, I finally took the leap to pursue this passion full-time. Hooray! The recipes I enjoy creating are always warm and comforting, often reflecting my Latin-American heritage. With a Peruvian mother and a Colombian father, you'll discover a mix of traditional dishes from both countries, along with some unique twists that I hope are respectful (since I grew up in the US). You can also expect plenty of treats, including pastries, cakes, breakfast delights, and an abundance of pie!

Best Carrot Cake Recipe

1 week ago | acozykitchen.com | Adrianna Adarme

To Make the Carrot Cake Layers: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease three 8-inch round baking pans. I also like to line my baking pan with a parchment just to make sure nothing sticks. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and ginger. Set the dry mixture aside. In the bowl of a stand-up mixer, with the paddle attachment, add the butter, neutral oil, white sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract; beat until nice and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes.

Salsa Verde

Preheat your oven to 400F. Line your baking sheet with foil. Place the tomatillos on a baking sheet, along with the onion, garlic cloves and jalapenos. Drizzle everything with the olive oil. And rub it in the olive oil. We want to make sure everything is evenly coated. Roast for about 10-12 minutes, until they have softened and smell fragrant. Turn your broiler on, and place them under the broiler for 2-3 minutes. This just gives a bit more char and color to the tomatillos.
