Description

There is plenty of folklore and legend associated with the madeleine. Some say that these soft, cake-like cookies were first baked in Lorraine, France and named after a central character in the region's history. Others allege that they were named after the French woman who first discovered them on a pilgrimage to Compostela, Spain. Regardless of where they came from, we know this much is true: the popularity of the classic madeleine endures. And our Trader Joe's Madeleine Cookies are so good, we thought it made perfect sense to offer seasonal, Spiced Pumpkin Madeleine Cookies, too! Trader Joe's Spiced Pumpkin Madeleine Cookies are made for us by a Northern California bakery that has specialized in baking madeleines for over 40 years, using classic, simple ingredients, like flour, sugar, butter, and eggs. For our Spiced Pumpkin Madeleines, they add dried pumpkin flakes, ginger purée, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, clove, and other natural flavors. The result is a warmly spiced, pumpkin-y Madeleine that's soft, moist, buttery, and cake-like. And, per tradition, they're baked in scalloped molds, giving them that distinctive, fancy shell shape that makes a Madeleine a Madeleine. Enjoy a Trader Joe's Spiced Pumpkin Madeleine Cookie or two anytime you're craving a bit of sweetness. They pair beautifully with a scoop of Trader Joe's Pumpkin Ice Cream, and they also complement a strong cup of Trader Joe's Pumpkin Spice Coffee
