Ingredients:
14 ounces of dulce de leche – (400 grans)
1 ¾ cups of heavy cream for whipping – (400 ml)
2 packs of Maria cookies
Instructions:
First, using a mixer, place the very cold heavy cream in the bowl and beat until you get a firm
consistency, but without forming peaks.
Next, add the dulce de leche to the whipped cream and continue beating until the mixture
reaches firm peaks.
Then, in a dessert dish, start with a thin layer of the whipped cream and dulce de leche mixture.
Now, cover this layer with Maria cookies.
After that, keep alternating layers of whipped cream and cookies until all ingredients are used,
ending with a layer of whipped cream.
Then, decorate the dessert with coarsely crushed Maria cookies.
Finally, place it in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours before serving so that the dessert is well
chilled and the flavors meld.

Here are some variations and tips for your dulce de leche dessert:
Variations:
You can add a layer of fresh fruit, like sliced bananas or strawberries, between the layers for a fruity twist.
Consider incorporating a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of sea salt into the whipped cream mixture for added flavor depth.
For a chocolatey version, you can drizzle melted chocolate between the layers or use chocolate cookies instead of Maria cookies.
Tips:
Make sure the heavy cream is very cold before whipping; this helps achieve better volume and stability.
If you want a firmer dessert, you can refrigerate it overnight, allowing the flavors to meld even more.
When decorating, try using chocolate shavings or nuts in addition to crushed Maria cookies for extra texture and flavor.
To store your dulce de leche dessert, follow these steps:
Cover: Once the dessert has set in the refrigerator, cover it with plastic wrap or a lid to prevent it from absorbing any odors from the fridge.
Refrigerate: Keep it in the refrigerator, where it can stay fresh for up to 3-5 days. The flavors will continue to meld, making it even tastier!
Serve Cold: When you’re ready to serve, you can enjoy it straight from the fridge. If it seems a bit firm, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving to soften slightly.
This way, you can enjoy your delicious dessert over several days!
