Alfajores with Dulce de Leche (Caramel Filled Cornstarch Cookies) Alfajores with Dulce de Leche (Caramel Filled Cornstarch Cookies)
I grew up eating these delicate, crumbly confections. The recipe is by Petrona C. De Gandulfo, a late Argentine cooking teacher, author, and tv personality. The cookies can be made ahead, stored in the refrigerator or freezer. Other jams, like quince or apple, can be used instead of dulce the leche. They are very sweet, so they go exceptionally well with strong black coffee or espresso.#alfajor #cookies #caramel #coconut #cornstarch #maizena #Argentina #sweet #treat #dessert

Argentinian Crumb Sandwiches Argentinian Crumb Sandwiches
This dish is very simple to prepare, fresh and delicious.How many beautiful memories come to my mind and go hand in hand with this recipe, birthday parties, end of the year in family, meeting with friends, etc.To prepare these delicious crumb sandwiches in Argentinean bakeries, they make the uncut bread loaf (English bread), each piece measures approximately 2 ft long x 1 ft wide, and has a crust around it. Once prepared, they remove the crust and then cut it into thin slices of approximately 1/4 inch high, it is sold on bread plates in almost all Argentinean bakeries.Unfortunately in the area where I live it is very difficult to find the bread plate, for that reason I use the classic white bread for this recipe, but when I tell you my secret, everyone will be able to make the classic bread just as fine and appropriate for these delicious "Sandwiches de miga Argentinos"Today I am going to make some of the delicious combinations of triple crumb sandwiches that exist, but there is an infinite variety of combinations to choose from.I invite you to prepare it and share with your loved ones.

When I visited Tuscany, my Florentine brother-in-law served these cantucci with a small glass of vin santo, the local sweet wine. That’s how he ate cantucci: dunked in vin santo. Years later I still dunk my cantucci in vin santo, Port wine or coffee.#biscotti #dunk #sweet #almond #dessert #snack -

Our Family's Secret Recipe for Almond Tuiles Our Family's Secret Recipe for Almond Tuiles
I created my own version of my mom's recipe which she has been baking for a long time.In Step 6, the key point is to spread out the tuile batter thinly. If it's too thick, the cookies will not turn out right.I work with 3 sheets of parchment paper. 1st sheet for baking, on the 2nd sheet spreading the batter, and the 3rd sheet being set aside to cool.
