Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, baking powder, and coconut sugar.
Tip: Use a digital scale for accurate measurements.

In a large bowl, cream together butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. Stir in vanilla extract and dulce de leche.
Tip: Don't overmix the dough.

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Tip: Letting the dough rest will help the cookies retain their shape.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 6mm thickness. Use the cat-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the cookies.
Tip: Make sure to press the cutter all the way through the dough.

Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2cm of space between each cookie.
Tip: Use a spatula to gently place the cookies.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.
Tip: Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once the cookies are cool, serve and enjoy!
