Oreo cookies covered in white dulce de leche are a delicious variant of the classic Oreo cookie alfajor, combining the crunchy texture of the cookies with a sweet and creamy white dulce de leche coating. This ingredient adds an exquisite and original touch to desserts, cakes, ice creams, and various sweet preparations, contributing a blend of flavors that unites the intensity of Oreo chocolate with the smoothness and milky taste of white dulce de leche.
The origin of Oreo cookies dates back to the United States in 1912, making them one of the most popular and consumed cookies in the world. Dulce de leche, on the other hand, is a traditional product from Latin America, especially from countries like Argentina, Uruguay, and Mexico, where it is made from milk and sugar slowly cooked until achieving a creamy texture and a characteristic sweet flavor. The combination of Oreo with white dulce de leche emerges as an innovative fusion that capitalizes on the popularity of both ingredients in dessert cuisine.
Regarding its properties, this ingredient offers a high caloric content due to its combination of fats and sugars, so it is primarily used to enrich and flavor sweet dishes.

In different Hispanic American countries, although there is no exact synonym for this specific product, it is often described as "Oreo cookies dipped or covered in white dulce de leche" or simply "Oreo with white dulce de leche". In some places, it is also informally known as "white Oreo" when referring to the dulce de leche coating instead of the traditional white cream filling.
