Fry the Buñuelos
Once the oil is hot, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Prepare Dulce De Leche
You can either use a store-bought dulce de leche or make your own by simmering a can of sweetened condensed milk in a pot of water for about 2 to 3 hours, making sure the can is fully submerged in water. Let it cool before using.
