hi everyone!
i baked black and white cookies using a book from cook’s illustrated "baking illustrated" – although i’m sure martha’s recipe is just as good!
batter.
i used a small spatula (?) i forget the name of the tool but it’s small with long/thin metal end…did white side first.
then the black (really dark brown).
they were yummy and surprisingly easy to bake.

They look delish Jenny. Picture perfect.
Your cookies look delicious Jennifer! And just a comment on your previous post…people can comment all they want…you are trying new things and putting yourself outside the comfort zone… thats more than some people do. You go girl!
These look so yummy!!! When I was a kid my mom would go to a bakery by her work and bring these special cookies home to us. We did not get them often but, when we did they were wonderful.
Thanks again for sharing
I love reading your posts and I know that this is nit-picking but…do you use flash when taking pictures? It just seems that things that should look white end up looking cream/gray in your pictures. Just wondering.
I have used Martha’s recipe and it is very good.
Thanks for the pics Jennifer! They look fab! I have the CI Baking Illustrated book, so going to look up the recipe and bake a batch myself!
WOW! I need that recipe. I love black and white cookies, but can only get them in NY. They aren’t sold in Ohio. mmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
Good job! They look beautiful!
I think the spatula you are referring to is the offset spatula? Good job on the cookies.
They look great, Jennifer! Martha’s frosting looks a little thinner – more like royal frosting. Thanks for posting the pics and tips. I think I’ll try them this weekend!
Oooh, my teeth hurt just looking at them! They look WONDERFUL!!!! Great job!
Those are georgous!!!! Please give us the recipe.
Wow, these look really good. I think I will give them a try this week-end. Keep up the good work!!
Jennifer, I love all of the step-by-step pictures that you always provide. It’s how I wish more recipes would be! Keep on with the baking and cooking and sharing it with all of us!
Now I remember why I stopped listening to the show. Two annoying people who whine non-stop when they should be grateful they won the parent lottery. Grow up already and stop being so god damn defensive.
Great job! I’m so proud of you!!
Didn’t we hear the collector show a while back?
Everything ok girls?Nobody is sick I hope!
I just started checking out your blogs and have really enjoyed them. Both of you are sooo creative and I especially like that both of you don’t take yourselves seriously, that is so refreshing. Keep up the inspiring work and good luck with your next project!!
Oh my these just look adorable & too yummy!
Love Alison x
These look wonderful. I had never heard of black and white cookies until I saw the recipe in Martha’s cookbook. I made them and they were so good. On a recent trip to New York, I saw them in a bakery and I think mine (and yours) looked much tastier! 🙂
Yum!
A former listener: Why are you still reading these blogs if you care nothing about listening to the show or the girls? Idiot!
I’m glad you are trying new recipes! The CI methods are a great for learning techniques. Here are a few more to try: Any of the muffins in the CI baking book are excellent. The batter is so delicious you might not even get to the muffins. Also-the CI Focaccia is also a winner!
“The parent lottery”, that is a riot…
did you realize you begin every single blog with “hi everyone!”
