Trader Joe's All Butter Shortbread Cookies With Apricot Or Raspberry Filling



My mother used to make cookies that looked just like these, which is why I couldn't resist bringing them home when I spotted them on the shelf at Trader Joe's.

Spoiler alert: Mom's were better.

TJ's is unforgivably stingy with the filling here, and the cookies themselves don't taste buttery-rich, but kind of floury. Rather than being soft and moist, they are dry and crumbly. They're far from being the worst TJ's cookies I've bought, but equally far from being the best.


Will I buy it again? 

No. I refuse to fill my life with meh cookies.
