Windmill Cookies made by Archway. They're kind of like gingerbread of spice cookies. But it is

[raccoon]

getting difficult to find them. Bilo used to have them, but I've looked at various Bilos and haven't seen them
lately.

I hate it when a store stops carrying something I really love.....

1. No, no, say it isn't so...

... those are among my favorites.





I've been eating windmill cookies as long as I can remember.

2. I see them at King Soopers in Colorado--which is associated with Kroger's nationally....

So, you might try Kroger's if you have them in your area. Where are you?

Damn, I hate it that hardly anyone fills out their gender, home town or state on DU3.

[raccoon]

11. SC. Yeah, I hate that too. nt

[marzipanni]

14. Yeah, not even what region!

And then when someone mentions not finding a cookie they like, local extreme weather, or posts a photo of an interesting place nearby, we're left up-in-the air.

3. Try going directly to the Archway website. I get WheataBix by mail.

Also, make sure you speak to the manager at every place and ask where the "Windmill Cookies" are currently located (as if you're clueless). When he/she says they don't carry them anymore, THEN make the booboo face and plead with them to bring them back. There's only one store in the entire area that ever has WheataBix and they sell out almost immediately. Why they don't carry them more often is a mystery.

4. Does anybody still make them?

I used to love those cookies but haven't seen them in years. My totally favorite cookie now is the Biscoff sort of gingersnappish thing they give you on Delta Air Lines. Those are wonderful with coffee.

5. Why not contact Archway and ask them who sells their cookie? If

you rave about their biscuits they'll probably send you some coupons.

6. Omg! I love windmill cookies!

I also loved Salerno Butter cookies and the Salerno coconut cookies!

Grocery shopping later today, so I am going to look for them.

7. Archway got bought out a few years ago, and is redoing their line.

I can't find the raspberry ones anymore, either.

8. I saw them in Shop Rite

They are in NY-NJ metro area, I am not sure if they were Archway but I did see them there. They had slivers of almonds in them as well as I remember. God they were so good with tea.

9. So do I hate when my 'something' is no longer easily available;

been chasing the 'right' ginger snaps for years; companies keep changing, discontinuing, acquiring others' recipes.

10. They sell those at the dollar store...

that's right up the street from my house.

[GoCubsGo]

22. I was just about to suggest that. Aldi, too.

I have seen windmill cookies at Dollar Tree. Not Archway, but I doubt they taste any different. At Christmastime, Aldi has various flavors of Spekulatius cookies. I think the almond-flavored ones may be like the windmills. It's possible they carry actual windmills, but I don't buy cookies all that often, so I can't say for sure. A number of their cookies are imported from Germany, especially around the holidays, and those I have had are quite good.

19. Have you tried google? Type in Archway. I remember the wedding cookies. Sometimes they are just

seasonal. Try that I bet you'll find what you are looking for. I know when I lived in Germany I was able to buy tomatoe sauce in a tube (like toothpaste). You can't find it here at least in the south. I found it on line and ordered it. Wonderful when you need just a tablespoon.

20. I loved those as a kid.

I used to call them Lily-lop-lops!

21. Those windmill cookies can be found under different brand names... I have seen other brands

floating around, so even if one brand is gone you should be able to still find the windmill cookies under another brand.

I do like the gingerbread-almond goodness of those cookies... good luck in your search if all else fails you could just buy 'em online
