Make It

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray a 24-cavity mini muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

Place 1 cookie dough square into each cup and press center down lightly.

Step 3

Bake for 9 to 12 minutes or until golden brown and edges are set. Squeeze or spoon 1/2 teaspoon dulce de leche into each cookie cavity while still warm. Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Using a pointed knife, loosen cookie cups and remove from pan; transfer to wire rack. Repeat with remaining dough and dulce de leche.

Step 4

Before serving, place a tangerine segment on top of dulce de leche and drizzle a little more dulce de leche on top. Serve warm or cool to room temperature.
