Form a ball with the dough and wrap it in plastic wrap. Refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes to make it easier to work with.
After this time, roll out the dough on a floured surface until it is approximately half a centimeter thick. Cut circles of desired size with a cookie cutter.
Place the cookies on the baking sheet, leaving some space between them, and bake for about 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool completely on a rack.
Once the cookies are cool, spread one of them with dulce de leche and then place another cookie on top, forming a sandwich.
If you wish, you can coat the edges of the alfajores with grated coconut to decorate them.
