It is actually based from Shakespeare's "The Tempest", with the original line is "As dreams are made on". The whole portion of the quote is
"We are such stuff
As dreams are made on, and our little life
Is rounded with a sleep."
Some ways to look at this" "We live, then we die" or "We are here, then we are gone without a trace".
I guess it makes more sense when you have it in context to the play.
So in the end, "what dreams are made of" is that which we imagine or fantasize about. It's that wish that we can only see in our dreams.

@yukoyuko That is a cute song! I figured that might of been one of the places you've heard the phrase!
In that context, it means being happy & thankful with what you got.
