Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by creaming together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract. Gradually add flour, baking soda, and salt until a smooth dough forms.
  3. Refrigerate the dough for 10-15 minutes to prevent spreading.
  4. Prepare cinnamon-sugar mixture by combining granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.
  5. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Shape dough into equal-sized balls and roll in cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  6. Bake cookies for 9-11 minutes until edges are golden.
  7. Prepare filling by melting butter and stirring in dulce de leche until smooth.
  8. Spread dulce de leche on one cookie and top with another to form a sandwich.
  9. Allow to rest for about an hour before serving.
