Trader Joe's knows that the only thing better than gingerbread men is chocolate-covered gingerbread men, which is why the chain has just launched its new Dark Chocolate Covered Gingerbread Cookie Folk.
Perfectly designed to please chocolate and gingerbread lovers alike, the new Dark Chocolate Covered Gingerbread Cookie Folk are a deliciously festive treat. The new cookies start with gingerbread biscuits similar to the brand's Chocolate Covered Lebkuchen. The main difference is that the new version of the cookies are softer, more mildly spiced, and do not contain candied orange peel and nuts. The nut-free gingerbread men are then covered in a layer of decadent dark chocolate. Best of all, the Dark Chocolate Covered Gingerbread Cookie Folk are on the smaller side, so you can enjoy several at once as a tasty holiday snack.
