Yesterday was officially the last day of summer, which means Fall is here – yay to that! Let’s celebrate with holiday cookie #2: Dulce de leche filled Chocolate Espresso Cookies with a hit of salt. Of course if you need to short-cut this recipe used store bought Dulce de Leche, but I prefer using this easy homemade recipe from my How to Make Homemade Dulce de Leche (and hey, there’s even step-by-step pictures!).
I realize the mention of holiday before Halloween makes some of you want to scream, but that’s what happens when you blog. It’s like retail – early for all things seasonal. Think of it as giving you options.
You’re not buying it. Okay, well then think of it as another hand-to-mouth addicting bite of cookie goodness.
Hit the jump here to Better Homes and Garden’s blog Delish Dish for a few tweaking options.
And don’t forget this is a Holiday Cookie Series in which I will be featuring a cookie a week up until Christmas.
Here’s last week’s in case you missed itโHoliday Cookie #1 : Sour Cherry and Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

Naomi, there is never a bad time for a cookie. I think you should post a cookie a week all year long. These look so lovely.

It’s never too early to be thinking about holiday cookies ๐ You have to go through the trialling and taste testing phases well ahead of time, right?

Is there a “print” option for your recipes? I’d like to print this one (looks SO yummy!), but I can’t locate the print option.
