Question
What is the definitive guide to making alfajores according to Hispana Global?
Answer
Making alfajores is a delightful process and I'm happy to share my method with you. I usually make two batches of alfajores, one with dulce de leche and one with Nutella to please everybody.
The key to a great alfajor is the cookie dough and the filling. The dough should be light and crumbly, and the filling should be rich and creamy.
For the dough, you'll need flour, butter, sugar, and eggs. Mix these ingredients together until you have a smooth dough. Then, roll out the dough and cut out your cookies.
For the filling, you can use traditional dulce de leche or Nutella. Spread a generous amount of filling on one cookie and then sandwich it with another cookie.
Finally, you can dust the alfajores with powdered sugar for a sweet finish.
