Butter Cuts filled with Dulce De Leche

בס"ד

I've made the "Gan Ofarims" butter cookies recipe. I've shaped them horizontally and vertically and filled with Dulce De Leche.

Ingredients:

For the cookies:

3 cups flour

3/4 cup sugar

200g Butter (=7.05 ounces)

5g baking powder (0.176 ounces)

2 teaspoons orange juice

1 egg

1 yolk

For the filling:

Dulce De Leche or whatever you like

Preparation:

Mix well all of the dough ingredients and place in the fridge for an hour.

Afterward, take the dough and flatten it to a thin rectangle.

Cut the rectangle into half. One half cut into small squares and put in the fridge. The other half, cut into small squares and then cut each square into 4 small strips.

On every two horizontal strips, place two vertical strips.

Put in the fridge for cooling.

Heat the oven to 180C/356F. Bake the first cookie batch for about 8-10 minutes.

When the first batch is out, let them set and bake the other batch.

Spread Dulce De Leche on each square and attach every three squares together.

On top of each three squares, place the strips square.
