Tuesdays with Dorie: Dulce de Leche Cookies

Make.these.cookies.now.
I did not know I could love a non-chocolate cookie so much but holy hell these are good. I almost didn't make them because I went to three stores without finding any dulce de leche and I was too busy to try to make my own. As a last resort I sent my husband to a Kroger near his work and he found it. These are fabulous, cookies are soft and cakey and make a sweet little sandwich with a thick layer of dulce de leche in the middle. The only alterations I made were to use a teaspoon of sea salt instead of 1/4 teaspoon of regular salt. Thanks to Jodie of Beansy Loves Cake for such a good selection (recipe is on her blog). I'm going to start stockpiling dulce de leche so I can make these more often.

I upped my salt too. Definitely think that helped enhance the sweet in this cookie. Glad you enjoyed the cookies!

I wish I had upped my flour, my cookies are flatter than a pancake.

Oh they look so good! I had to do a rewind this week, didn't have the ingredients. Still want to make them though!

Funny how your cookies were cakey, mine turned out to be more on the crispy side!
