Have you ever saved Trader Joe's for last on a long day of running errands? Last is good because all of your frozen items are home in a jiffy, but last is BAD because you're hungry and buy ALL THE THINGS.
With that in mind, this Trader Joe's review is brought to you...from my car. That's right, I (A.) had to impulsively buy this box of Gingerbread Sandwich Cookies, and (B.) had to rip open the box and eat one in my car.

A Trader Joe's holiday item and a new one at that, I found these cookies in a big display right in the front of the store. A box of 18 cookies costs $4.99.
The suggested serving size is one sandwich cookie coming in at 150 calories each.
More gingerbread goodness:
- gingerbread muffins with cream cheese drizzle (two sugar bugs)
- fudge gingerbread linzer cookies (pies and tacos)
- favorite gingerbread cookies (bake at 350)
Trader Joe's Gingerbread Sandwich Cookies Review
REVIEW (Bridget): Exquisite. Can I call a cookie exquisite? Good. Because they are. The cookies are small in diameter, but as a filled sandwich cookie, they have a satisfying, substantial bite. The cookies are soft with a slight crunch from a sprinkle of just the right amount of sparkling sugar. While it looks a little messy, the thick powdered sugar and cream cheese filling is set and stays in place. The gingerbread spice is light - not spicy at all, just pleasantly flavorful. I didn't just eat one in my car; I ate two. And then another when I got home.
Overall review: 5 of 5 stars
(please send lotion and a manicure, stat.)
Will I buy these again? A very enthusiastic YES.
