Name That Cookie

[Katie Meadow]

I will describe the madeleine of my childhood. I can't remember what they were called and I haven't seen them for a million years. I grew up on the East Coast but haven't lived there for 40 years. My mother would buy these almost every week during the 50's and perhaps the early 6O's. What were they called and do they still exist?

Here goes: They came in a large flat grid, and were easily broken apart into separate cookies like large tiles--maybe square, maybe rectangular, I'm not sure. The "grout" line was relatively wide and easy to break. The cookie was a very simple, waferish thing with a taste maybe resembling an ice-cream cone (not a sugar cone, the other kind.) There was a smooth peanut butter filling inside. The filled cookie was no more than a half inch thick, uniformly smooth and level on both sides. I believe they were sold in a plastic wrapper, not a box. I don't remember ever seeing this cookie with any variations--i.e. no choc coating, no crunchy style, no nuthin' but perfectly basic. And basically perfect. I would not be at all surprised to find they don't taste as good as I remember, but it's driving me nuts that I can't name them.

I have another one. I cannot for the life of me remember the name of this cookie. I asked my mom and she remembers the cookie being my favorite when I was little.

It was made by Nabisco and it looked like 2 vanilla wafers filled with marshmallow. It was in a green box, packaged like Mallomars. Yhey were kinda like a naked Mallomar.

Does any one remember the name of this cookie?

All the supermarkets near me have always sold them since I was a little girl...

I always peel them open, plop all that PB Cream on a plate, eat the wafer part, then eat the blob of PB Cream...

mmmmmmmmmmm

I have a package for my son at my house right now:

Were these them? OMG, I loved these cookies. Every once in a while, the memory of these cookies pop in my mind.

According to this site, Nabisco no longer makes them.
