Time 1h15m

Yield 12 large cookies

Number Of Ingredients 17

8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup whole, 2 percent fat, or 1 percent fat milk
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon pure lemon extract
1 1/4 cups cake flour
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Chocolate Icing:
1/2 vanilla icing recipe
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Line a baking sheet with waxed or parchment paper. In a mixer, cream the butter. Add the granulated sugar and beat until fluffy. Add the eggs, milk, and extracts and mix to combine. In a large bowl, combine the flours, baking powder, and salt and mix well. Add the dry ingredients to the sugar-egg mixture and mix to blend. Using an ice-cream scoop, scoop the dough onto the prepared pans. With a spatula, press and spread each cookie into a circle about 5 inches in diameter and about 3/8-inch thickness. Bake for about 20 minutes, until golden. Let cool on wire racks.
  • Icing: In a medium bowl, stir the sugar, milk, and vanilla together until it forms a smooth icing. Transfer half of the icing to another bowl and stir in the cocoa powder and milk until smooth.
  • When cool, turn cookies over, so the flat side faces up. Spread white icing on half of each flat surface, then spread the other half with chocolate icing. Let set at room temperature for 30 minutes.

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I still enjoyed these black and whites. The coconut flavor is very subtle.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my black and whites turned out flat and crumbly. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

Overall, I thought these black and whites were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

These black and whites were a bit of a disappointment. The chocolate flavor was overpowering and the cookies were too dry.

I had a hard time finding the right consistency for the dough. It was either too sticky or too dry.

These black and whites were a little too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
