Jovial Organic Einkorn Checkerboard Cookies, 8.8 oz (6-Pack) — High Protein, Low Sugar

Jovial Organic Einkorn Checkerboard Cookies are lightly sweetened chocolate-and-vanilla shortbreads made from ancient einkorn wheat, offering 3g protein and only 5g sugar per serving for a satisfying, pantry-ready snack.

These checkerboard cookies blend simple ingredients and traditional Italian craftsmanship to create a crunchy, subtly sweet nibble that pairs well with coffee, tea, or on-the-go. Made from USDA Organic einkorn flour and responsibly sourced cocoa and palm fruit oil, they aim to balance flavor with cleaner ingredient choices. The cookies are baked in Italy using long-rotation farming practices that support soil health and biodiversity.

How are these cookies different from regular shortbread?

Instead of modern wheat, Jovial uses einkorn, an ancient grain with a distinct flavor profile and nutrient makeup. The recipe combines chocolate and vanilla shortbread sections for a visual checkerboard and a contrasting taste experience. Ingredients avoid common allergens like milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, shellfish, fish, and soy.
