Dulce De Leche Sandwich Cookies
Description
The cookie dough is prepared by creaming together butter, sugar, and egg yolks, then mixing in baking powder and flour until crumbly. It is divided, rolled to a quarter-inch thickness, and cut into cookie shapes. Once baked and cooled, Dulce de Leche is piped onto half the cookies, and topped with remaining cookies to form sandwiches. Semi-sweet chocolate chips melted with coconut oil create a smooth coating for dipping. Crushed nuts sprinkled on the dipped half offer texture and a nutty accent.
These sandwich cookies provide a balance between the sweet, caramel-like filling and rich chocolate with crunchy nuts. The preparation allows for visually appealing treats ideal for gifting or festive occasions.
Ingredients
- 200 g butter room temperature, unsalted
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 4 egg yolk
- 2 1/2 cup flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 cup dulce de leche
- 2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- 1/2 cup nut crushed
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together butter, sugar and egg yolks.
- As soon as the mixture is smooth, add baking powder and flour in small portions. Mix by hand or with a spatula until the dough is nice and crumbly.
- Seperate the dough in half. Cover it with plastic wrap and roll it out into 1/4-inch thickness.
- Using a cookie cutter, create your sandwich cookie halves. Use a knife to lift each cookie and move it onto a baking sheet. Bake at 350°F for 12-15 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
- Fill a piping or a ziplock bag with dulce de leche. Pipe the filling onto half of the cookies. Immediately cover dulce de leche with another cookie half to form a sandwich.
- Melt chocolate chips in a microwave, stirring every few seconds to prevent burning. Add coconut oil into the melted chocolate to make the chocolate a bit runny.
- Dip half of each cookie into chocolate and place the cookie on a baking mat. Sprinkle with crushed nuts and allow chocolate to harden at room temperature.
