Our alfajores recipe is inspired by many cherished family recipes, and we think it\u2019s a lovely rendition.<\/p>\n<h2>What are alfajores?<\/h2>\n<p>Alfajores are sandwich cookies primarily found in Spanish-speaking countries, as well as in southern France, the Philippines and Brazil. Shortbread-like cookies sandwich a delicious filling of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/recipes-with-dulce-de-leche\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/recipes-with-dulce-de-leche\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">dulce de leche<\/a>, made of caramelized milk and sugar or sweetened condensed milk. Often, the cookies are rolled in coconut, coated with confectioners&#8217; sugar or dipped in chocolate.<\/p>\n<p>While Americans tend to think of <em>dulce de leche<\/em> as a universal term, the name varies from country to country. For example, in Chile and Ecuador, it is <em>manjar<\/em>, while in other regions it may be <em>doce de leite<\/em>, <em>arequipe<\/em>, <em>cajeta<\/em> (a Mexican goat milk version) or <em>manjar blanco<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>I have heard that alfajores are enjoyed primarily at Christmas. However, based on personal experience, anecdotal evidence from friends and family, and the success of many year-round alfajores-based businesses, I can say the cookies are eaten at any time of the year!<\/p>\n<h2>Alfajores Ingredients<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Brandy:<\/strong> No, brandy isn\u2019t just for cocktails. The vanilla caramel notes of brandy are a lovely addition to the cookie and pair nicely with the dulce de leche.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vanilla extract:<\/strong> Vanilla enhances the sweetness of the alfajores cookies and rounds out the flavors of the brandy, lemon zest and dulce de leche.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lemon zest:<\/strong> There are many different <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-zest-a-lemon-3-easy-ways\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-zest-a-lemon-3-easy-ways\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">ways to zest a lemon<\/a>, but our preferred method is grating it with a Microplane. Move the lemon around after every scratch, and try not to get the bitter white pith in the dough.<\/li>\n<li><strong>All-purpose flour:<\/strong> Flour gives the alfajores cookies structure and stability.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cornstarch:<\/strong> Since there\u2019s more cornstarch than all-purpose flour in our recipe, you\u2019ll get a tender, light, chewy cookie rather than something like shortbread.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Leaveners:<\/strong> We use a mix of baking powder and baking soda so the cookies have a nice rise.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sugar:<\/strong> Our alfajores recipe is sweetened with 3\/4 cup granulated sugar.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Butter:<\/strong> Soften the butter by taking it out of the fridge 30 minutes before starting the recipe. If you want to start the alfajores recipe sooner than that, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-soften-butter-quickly\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-soften-butter-quickly\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">soften the butter quickly<\/a> by grating it or rolling it out between two pieces of parchment.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Eggs:<\/strong> If you\u2019ve never quite mastered <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-separate-egg-whites-from-yolks\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-separate-egg-whites-from-yolks\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">separating egg whites from yolks<\/a>, crack the whole egg in a bowl and use a slotted spoon to gently lift the yolk out.

You can use canned dulce de leche from the grocery store. However, if you can\u2019t find it, making <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/dulce-de-leche-recipe\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/dulce-de-leche-recipe\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">dulce de leche<\/a> at home is very simple.

They are best served the same day but can last up to three days in the fridge.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make alfajores ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p>Absolutely! You can make alfajores cookies in their entirety a few days before serving them. You could also make the components ahead of time, too, and assemble them on the day of serving. If you\u2019re making the dulce de leche from scratch, store it in the fridge for up to four days. Make and roll out the cookie dough and keep it in the fridge for up to one week, or bake the cookies and store them in an airtight container for up to four days.<\/p>\n<h2>Alfajores Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2061548\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Alfajores_TOH24VP_277688_MF_09_13_1.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Alfajores cookies on a table top in a wooden tray\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">TASTE OF HOME<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Where did alfajores originate?<\/h3>\n<p>It is theorized that the alfajores recipe was developed in the Middle East but made it to what is now Spain when the Moors conquered the Iberian Peninsula in the eighth century. The treat became part of the regional cuisine and eventually spread to Latin American colonies and the Philippines. Today, many, if not <em>most<\/em>, Spanish-speaking countries have their own preferred alfajores recipe.<\/p>\n<h3>How can I use leftover dulce de leche?<\/h3>\n<p>Try using leftover dulce de leche on toast, over ice cream or by the spoonful! Since it takes a while to prepare homemade dulce de leche, make a big batch by throwing in a few cans of sweetened condensed milk to cook at once. You can store it on a shelf for about three months. For a longer shelf life, store it in the refrigerator or freezer. Once you open a can of dulce de leche, put anything left in a glass or airtight container with a tight seal and keep it refrigerated for up to five days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alfajores combines shortbread cookies with a rich dulce de leche filling for a decadent treat.
