The internet tells me that black and white cookies originated from a bakery in Manhattan called Glaser&rsquo;s Bake Shop, and white I haven&rsquo;t had one from that exact shop, I have eaten many a black and white cookie in New York. Also, I&rsquo;ve eaten a lot of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/mini-new-york-cheesecakes\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>mini New York cheesecakes<\/strong><\/span><\/a> in my day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The flavor combination of lemon, vanilla and chocolate altogether is just so good! These cookies are soft, almost like a muffin-top cookie but with crisp, buttery edges. You have to try them if you love soft cookies with icing, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/small-batch-lofthouse-sugar-cookies\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>lofthouse cookies<\/strong><\/span><\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-are-black-and-white-cookies\">What are Black and White Cookies?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Black and white cookies are soft lightly lemon-scented cookies that are frosted on the bottom (flat) side with half vanilla and half chocolate icing. They&rsquo;re classically New York, and you can grab one in almost any bakery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies.jpg\" alt=\"Black and white cookies on marble plate.\" class=\"wp-image-78255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-267x400.jpg 267w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-550x825.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-720x1080.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-360x540.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-180x270.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-150x225.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-black-and-white-cookies-recipe-ingredients\">Black and White Cookies Recipe Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"771\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/black-and-white-cookies-8.jpg\" alt=\"Lots of bowls of ingredients for cookies.\" class=\"wp-image-33014\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/black-and-white-cookies-8.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/black-and-white-cookies-8-400x257.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/black-and-white-cookies-8-300x193.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/black-and-white-cookies-8-550x354.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/black-and-white-cookies-8-768x494.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/black-and-white-cookies-8-150x96.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/black-and-white-cookies-8-600x386.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Butter.&nbsp;<\/strong>This is a small batch recipe, so we only need 2.5 tablespoons of unsalted, softened butter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sugar.<\/strong> Granulated sugar is what we need.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lemon Zest<\/strong>.

You can refrigerate them for an additional 2 days. I don&rsquo;t recommend freezing them once frosted, as the icing will liquify slowly over time. You can freeze these cookies without frosting for up to 3 months before icing. Defrost at room temperature, frost and serve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-3-1.jpg\" alt=\"Three black and white cookies on a white plate with milk on the side.\" class=\"wp-image-78257\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-3-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-3-1-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-3-1-267x400.jpg 267w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-3-1-550x825.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-3-1-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-3-1-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-3-1-720x1080.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-3-1-360x540.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-3-1-180x270.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-3-1-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Black-and-White-Cookies-3-1-150x225.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you love these, you&rsquo;ll like my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dessertfortwo.com\/black-and-matcha-cookies\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>black and matcha cookies<\/strong><\/span><\/a> that are just like this, but the white icing contains matcha.
