How to Make Alfajores Cookies
Step #6: After the dough has chilled, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (177 degrees Celsius) and take one disk of dough out of the refrigerator to warm up for a few minutes. Essentially, Alfajores consist of two round, sweet biscuits made of flour, cornstarch, or a mix of both, which give them a tender, crumbly texture. A layer of Dulce de Leche joins these cookies together. You can also fill Alfajores with chocolate, marmalade, or other sweet pastes. Step #10: Allow the cookies to completely cool on the baking sheet before putting together the sandwich cookies. Step #11: Pour the coconut into a shallow bowl. When ready to eat, simply allow frozen cookies to thaw at room temperature.
