The new cookie is a bite-sized lemon wedge cookie dusted in powdered sugar. It is named after Savannah, GA, the hometown of Girl Scouts founder Juliette Gordon Low. For information about Low and the history of the Girl Scouts, click here.
“This lemon wedge cookie is cool and crisp, with just the right number of lemon chips to deliver tiny bursts of flavor. And, when you hold it right, you’ll quickly be reminded of that world-famous 'Brownie Smile,'" according to the Little Brownie Bakers website.
