Van Straten Bakkerij Amandelkoekjes 6st 375g

The "Gevulde Koek" is arguably the most famous bakery snack in the Netherlands. It is the grab-and-go treat of choice at every Dutch train station.

Think of a large, soft, buttery shortbread cookie that hides a secret: a thick layer of sweet, chewy marzipan-like almond paste baked right into the middle.

Eat it straight out of the package when you need an afternoon energy boost. If you want a bakery-fresh experience, warm it in the oven at 300°F for about three minutes before eating.
