Place a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Add the coconut milk and coconut sugar and stir to combine.Simmer for 2 hours until the dulce has reduced to 1/4 of its original volume and becomes a dark, caramel brown color. My dulce was cooking at 300F to 325F most of the time.The first 30 minutes you'll need to stir only occasionally. The longer it cooks and heats the more you'll need to stir it, scraping down the sides as you go. If you see the dulce boiling, reduce the heat to return it to a simmer. The last half hour you really have to baby it, stirring constantly.At the end of the process, the coco dulce will be boiling relatively rapidly -- remove from heat and, using a silicon spatula, transfer the dulce to a large, wide mouth mason jar (or the bowl of a heat safe blender like a Vitamix). When it's done the dulce will “break” i.e. the coconut oil separates from the milk. Don’t freak out. This is part of the process.[b]If using an emulsion blender,[/b] be sure the blending wand is fully submerged in the caramel which you've transferred to your mason jar. Blend until your caramel is creamy.[b]If using a heat-safe blender[/b], blend the caramel until smooth and creamy on high heat for 20-30 seconds until creamy. Carefully scrape the caramel into a heat-safe container.Cool for at least 2 hours. The caramel will thicken up significantly. Can be stored in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. For the Graham Sandwich Cookies Preheat the oven to 350F and line two large cookie sheets with parchment paper.To the bowl of a food processor fitted with an S blade, add your sorghum, white rice, almond, and tapioca flours, and your coconut sugar, baking powder, psyllium, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pulse to combine.Add one tablespoon at a time of coconut oil to the flours and pulse to combine after each tablespoon. The mixture will start to look sandy.Whisk together the almond milk and maple syrup in a small bowl.While the food processor is running, add the milk-maple mixture in a steady stream. The mix will start to form into a dry dough.Scrape down the sides, and process for 10 seconds more. At this point your dough will start to become pliable.Empty the dough out onto a piece of parchment paper.Knead the dough into a smooth ball.Split the ball in half and smooth the two halves into two smaller balls. Wrap in the parchment paper. Cool in the fridge for 30 minutes.`Remove from the fridge. Dust a parchment paper covered work surface with flour and roll the balls out, one at a time, to 1/4 inch thickness. Using a 1.5 inch cookie cutter, cut out your cookies and place them on your parchment paper lined baking sheets spaced about 1/4 inch apart. You can squish the extra dough back together and re-roll it out, dusted with flour, until you have about 60 cookies cut out. Gluten free cookie dough is forgiving like that.Bake each cookie sheet on the middle rack for 10-12 minutes, until the cookies turn a golden brown color. Remove from oven and let cool completely before handling (they firm up a bit).Once the cookies are completely cooled (and they have to be to spread the dulce de leche on!), spread 1 teaspoon of dulce onto 30 of the cookies.Sandwich each of the cookies with a top cookie, pressing down gently to spread the dulce in the centers evenly.To store: cookies can be frozen in a tightly sealed container for up to two weeks (thaw at room temp for 30 minutes before attempting to eat them!) or in a sealed container in the fridge for up to a week. But I think they're best the day of and the day after.
