It is a vanilla shortbread cookie covered with a thick layer of fudge ganache. It is only available in the Baltimore and DC area. To get it outside you have to order online.

No it doesnt Rick. Although there is Apple scrapple. Scrapple is a corn meal based product. It is pretty much everything but the oink boiled and then the meat is reserved and finely chopped and added to a cornmeal mush that is cooked in the broth from where they boiled the meat. Then it is formed into loaves and packaged. Very tasty.

Scrapple doesn't appeal to me Shaun.
