CINNAMON COOKIES WITH DULCE DE LECHE FILLING

DULCE DE LECHE AND CHOCOLATE BROWNIE SANDWICHES

DULCE DE LECHE AND CHOCOLATE BROWNIE SANDWICHES

This dulce de leche brownie sandwich was my bestseller. I say “was” because I use to sell desserts when I lived in my hometown. This was the one I enjoyed making the most and the crowd’s favorite as well. These brownie sandwiches are an extremely
