Dulce De Leche Sandwich Cookies Amongst Cinnamon Too Cardamom

Dulce de Leche Sandwich Cookies amongst Cinnamon as well as Cardamom – a sweet, soft cookie coated amongst the warm flavors of cinnamon as well as cardamom as well as hence filled amongst a silky rich caramel.

Every yr I seem to run out of fourth dimension during the holidays as well as don’t teach the conduct chances to essay novel cookie recipes.  I’ve already had a few inquiries most my regular homemade gifts similar the Peanut Butter Fudge, Chocolate Fudge as well as English Toffee.  So yep – love friends, I volition cause making these treats inwards early on December!  And … this yr I may add together these cookies to the rotation.  To say they disappeared chop-chop would live on an understatement.  Be certain to tuck this i away for your vacation baking – it’s a winner!

 

No joke!  This recipe (without my adaptations) won the Annual Reader Recipe Contest for Christmas Cookies amongst Cook’s Country.  The master copy recipe calls for dry reason anise but I used cardamom instead.  I’ve e'er been a fan of anise, peculiarly inwards Pizzelles,  but I idea cinnamon as well as cardamom would live on a pretty dandy combination too.  The cookies are elementary to brand as well as bake.

 

Once baked, dip the warm cookies inwards a mixture of cinnamon as well as sugar.  Allow them to cool earlier filling amongst Dulce de Leche mixed amongst cinnamon, cardamom as well as butter.

 

I’ve tried making Dulce de Leche a few times using sweetened condensed milk as well as never seem to teach it nighttime enough.  Nestle makes a pretty terrific caramel amongst exclusively milk as well as sugar.  Preservative gratis as well as fairly inexpensive, I’m in!

 

These are an impressive cookie amongst real trivial effort.  Dressed upward inwards a pretty gift box as well as ribbon, yous volition brand some of your favorite people real happy!

 

Let the vacation baking begin!
