  • 3/4 tsp.

    kosher salt

  • 1/4 tsp.

    baking soda

  • 1/4 tsp.

    cream of tartar

  • 3 1/2 tsp.

    ground cinnamon, divided

  • 1 c.

    unsalted butter, at room temperature

  • 1 c.

    canned sweet potato purée

  • 2/3 c.

    confectioners' sugar

  • 2 tsp.

    pure vanilla extract

  • 1 1/2 c.

    granulated sugar, divided

  • 2

    large eggs

  • 1

    (13.4-oz.) can dulce de leche

Directions

  • Step 1Whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, cream of tartar, and 2 teaspoons cinnamon in a bowl.
  • Step 2Beat butter, sweet potato puree, confectioners’ sugar, vanilla, and 1 cup granulated sugar on medium speed with an electric mixer until fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating until blended after each addition. Reduce speed to low and beat in flour mixture, just until flour is incorporated. Cover and chill at least 2 hours and up to 2 days.
  • Step 3Preheat oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Stir together remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon and 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a bowl. Roll dough into balls (about 1 tablespoon each). Roll balls in cinnamon sugar, and arrange, 2" apart, on prepared baking sheets.
  • Step 4Bake until just golden around bottom edges, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on baking sheets for 1 minute, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
  • Step 5Spread dulce de leche on the flat side of half of the cookies, dividing evenly. Sandwich with remaining cookies.
