Zubereitung von Alfajores
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, and baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about ⅛ inch thickness. Use a 2-3 inch cookie cutter to cut out circles.
- Place the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack.
- Once cooled, spread a generous layer of dulce de leche onto one cookie and top with another cookie to create a sandwich.
- Dust with powdered sugar or roll the edges in shredded coconut for an extra touch of sweetness and texture.
