Cookies please

Home-baked goods are always the best gift. One of my favorite cookies is inspired by family... the alfajores! These dulce de leche cookies are super easy to make and will surely hit the spot. I really enjoy Ingrid Hoffmann's recipe.

I would recommend keeping on eye on them so that the cookies do not burn. I find 15-17 minutes is just perfect.

Remember, you can add a little more cinnamon, nutmeg and ground cloves if desired. I find that it brings out the flavor of the dulce de leche all the more.

Stacking the cookies on a little plate with a final dusting is a great way to show them off. 

Hope you enjoy!
