What could be better than sugar cookies with dulce de leche icing? Iced cookies with extra dulce de leche drizzle, of course! These incredible dulce de leche cookies taste like they took all day to make, but are actually super easy, getting a jump-start from Pillsbury™ refrigerated sugar cookie dough. After that, it only takes four more ingredients and minimal prep to make cookies that taste like they came straight from the bakery. Make them for your next holiday party, or any special day when the sweet tooth craving strikes.
