Isa’s Pistachio Cake is as much a product of Isaura Amill‘s present community as it is a tribute to her heritage. The recipe for this buttery sweet specialty hails from Puerto Rico, where Isa was born and where her mother began selling the cakes 15 years ago. Seven years later, when Isa came to the United States, she brought the recipe with her but wasn’t necessarily interested in baking the cakes for sale. “It’s just always been the Christmas gift that I give to people,” she says.
