A shortbread ring coated and striped with Keebler fudge, sold in an 11.5 oz package. Here's what the ingredients and Keebler's own serving ideas tell you before you open it.
Quick verdict
Fudge Stripes pair a shortbread ring with Keebler's fudge, coated on and striped across the top, for a cookie that feels like dessert straight from the package. Keebler suggests them with a glass of milk, as both sides of an ice cream sandwich or in a s'mores-style treat. The 11.5 oz package suits lunches and snack drawers, though the recipe leans on vegetable oils, invert sugar and artificial flavors.

Key features, explained
Shortbread meets fudge
Fudge Stripes start with a shortbread cookie, a ring with a hole in the center, then add Keebler fudge: the cookies are coated in it and finished with stripes across the top. The package photo shows the effect, a golden, patterned cookie with dark fudge lines running over it. The flavor plan is simple, chocolatey fudge against a sweet, plain cookie, and the package sums it up as magically made with Keebler Fudge.
Baked in the Hollow Tree
Keebler leans on its elves for this one, describing the cookies as baked in the Hollow Tree with a little elfin ingenuity and a lot of TLC. It's playful branding, but it tells you who the cookie is for: families, lunchboxes and anyone who likes a nostalgic snack-aisle classic. The directions are as easy as it gets: unwrap, open, ready to enjoy. Keebler pitches them for school, the office, travel or a lunchtime snack.
Ice cream sandwiches and s'mores
Keebler suggests three ways to serve Fudge Stripes: with a glass of milk, as the two sides of an ice cream sandwich, or in your own chocolate s'mores dessert. The ice cream idea works because the cookie is flat with a fudge-coated side, so a scoop of vanilla between two of them makes a quick frozen treat. For s'mores, the fudge layer can stand in for a square of chocolate next to a toasted marshmallow.
What's in the package
The ingredient list starts with enriched flour (wheat flour plus added vitamins and iron), sugar and vegetable oil (soybean, palm kernel and palm), followed by invert sugar, cocoa processed with alkali and whey. Smaller amounts include salt, leavening, sorbitan tristearate, molasses, soy lecithin and natural and artificial flavors. The package holds 11.5 oz (326 g). This is a mass-market cookie built for consistency, not a butter-based bakery recipe.

They shine in lunchboxes, beside a glass of milk and as a shortcut to ice cream sandwiches or s'mores. The label is mass-market, with palm kernel and palm oils, invert sugar and artificial flavors, so they're a fun treat rather than a bakery-style cookie.
