There are two different cookie bakers licensed by GSUSA to bake the Girl Scout cookies. Both companies bake a shortbread type cookie, but one company calls them Shortbread and the other company calls them Trefoils. There is also a slight difference in the ingredients. The Trefoils contain brown sugar and buttermilk, while those ingredients are not listed for the Shortbread.
Yes! Girl Scouts in the US still sell a Trefoil cookie, however it is more of a shortbread cookie than a sugar cookie. Depending on the cookie baker, they are either a Trefoil or a Shortbread.
Trefoil cookies are named after their shape. Trefoil means a shape made from three overlapping rings. The trefoil cookie uses the three overlapping Girl Scouts silhouettes to make a somewhat round design.
Girl Scouts USA uses two different bakeries. The plain cookie is known by either Shortbread or Trefoil, depending on the bakery.
There are about 142 calories in one shortbread cookie. However, this number may vary depending on the size of the shortbread cookie.
