Cuoco, whose divorce from Ryan Sweeting was finalised in May, has found love again with professional horse rider Karl Cook, 26.
"It's funny, he's either the one riding or it's me, so we're rarely doing it together," she told People magazine about her new man.
"But recently we did go on a little trail ride date. It was adorable. We hadn't really done that yet. One is usually cheering for the other so that was kind of cute to go out together. We totally held hands. It was very dorky!"
She said she has learnt a lot about love in the past year.
"When you share something so special, some sort of connection - for us, it's horses, but anything two people share - you have that common goal and you know that you want the same things in life, day to day, and in the future," she said.
"It just sets you on a better path. Having a lot in common is really important and we definitely have a lot in common. I think that that's what makes us so strong and really happy."
According to Forbes, Cook's dad is a businessman with an estimated wealth of $2.6 billion.
