Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Horchata bibingka

    • mayfayflo on December 17, 2025

      Horchata turned into mochi rice porridge when I heated it

  • Confetti pianono

      This cake is VERY sweet. I reduced the sugar in the whipped cream to 1/4c and could go lower for sure. I also think I rolled the cake a little too tightly and it compressed the sponge a bit too much. I might opt to use parchment paper instead of a towel next time, as the towel stuck to the sponge quite a bit and made it hard to unroll. I was nervous to put in the fridge overnight before filling because I thought it would dry out, but it's very moist so it would have been fine - will do that next time. Frosting and sprinkles cover all kinds of sins and my son thought it was a fun birthday cake!

  • Adobo chocolate chip cookies

    • eclairea on August 11, 2025

      Made this for my visiting cousins who thought it was weird when I told them what it was, and then they enjoyed it! They were fun to bake and the pink peppercorn is an absolute must for a fruity crunch.

  • Sampalok Tajín snickerdoodles

    • mayfayflo on January 31, 2026

      Delicious! The tamarind powder was impossible to find in my area stores so I had to order it online.

  • Ube skillet crinkle cookies

    • NicoleBrown on September 04, 2024

      Ordered some Ube halaya + extract off of amazon to try these out! I turned mine into regular size cookies as all my skillets are big bois. Taste great! They smell SUPER sweet and I was nervous it was going to be too much for me. But they actually taste less sweet than they smell. Very pretty, too! 5 out of 5 people in my house enjoyed them and came back for more!

      I used the recipe on Abi’s blog for the traditional cookie option instead of the large skillet version- they are virtually identical with a few different measurements which I found helpful.

      I also used the recipe on her blog to make individual cookies instead of one large skillet cookie - the measurements are nearly identical. The only sub I made was dairy free butter - These cookies came out softer/more chewy than expected, but I’m not sure if that is because of the butter. Nonetheless, the taste was on point and I recieved many compliments!

  • Milky avocado ice pops

    • EmilyR on April 03, 2024

      quite good, though these are rich and rather sweet even after upping the avocado. Smaller pops would be a good idea.
