I admit that my favorite way to eat this caramel flavored spread is from a spoon, but it is also great when poured over ice cream, used as a dip for fruit, spread on bread or even pancakes, poured over popcorn, used as a flavoring in homemade ice cream or yogurt, as a frosting, to sandwich two cookies together (especially in Alfajores), as a layer in Millionaire's Shortbread Bars, or in a Banoffee Pie (takes a pastry shell and fills it with Dulce de Leche, sliced bananas, and whipped cream).

The first thing I ever baked was probably a batch of alfajores with my mom and Tia Emilia. (acozykitchen.com)
I am working on making alfajores at the request of my sister (who recently visited Oaxaca) and I was trying to figure out if there was a way to make dulce de leche without using canned condensed milk. (smittenkitchen.com)
