• Spoon cookie batter out 1/4-cup portions onto the prepared cookie sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges just begin to turn golden brown, 13 to 15 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
• While cookies cool, melt butter for vanilla icing in a double boiler over medium heat. Stir in confectioners' sugar, corn syrup, vanilla extract, and salt. Add water gradually until vanilla icing comes together. Heat over the double boiler until icing falls off the back of a spoon in thick ribbons, 2 to 4 minutes. Set heat to low.
• Frost 1/2 of the golden brown underside of each cooled cookie with vanilla icing using a rubber spatula. Allow excess to dribble back into the double boiler. Let cookies cool for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, set the double boiler back to medium heat and add confectioners' sugar, semisweet chocolate, bittersweet chocolate, corn syrup, butter, vanilla extract, and food coloring to the remaining vanilla icing. Mix well, adding water until icing is combined. Heat until icing falls off of the back of a spoon in thick ribbons, 2 to 4 minutes. Set heat to low.
• Frost the other 1/2 of the cooled cookies using a rubber spatula in the same manner as before. Let cookies cool until icing sets, 1 to 2 hours. Serve.

NEW YORK BLACK AND WHITE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two rimmed cookie sheets with parchment paper or silpat baking mat. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.

Using a large serving spoon is how I find to be the easiest way. Mix about 1 minutes. Stop scrape down the sides of bowl and beat again until completely combined. Another 20 seconds. Stop and continue to combine by hand with a rubber spatula. Batter will be very thick. Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, lightly mist the cup with cooking or baking spray. Scoop and gently drop batter onto baking sheet. 5 to 6 mounds at a time. Make sure they are spaced. If you can get all 6 on the sheet that would be best. Bake between 15 and 18 minutes or until edges of each cookie are lightly browned. The cookies will stay light with just a hint of color. The tops should spring back lightly when gently touched. Let cookies cool on baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Then, slide the parchment paper onto the cooling rack for the cookies to cool completely.

• Using a rounded tablespoon or level #40 cookie scoop, scoop the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 1 inch apart. Dip your fingers in water or lightly spray with nonstick spray and gently flatten the tops of the cookies (this will help prevent them from doming while baking).
• Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, until light golden brown around the edges. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

• Once cookies have cooled completely, flip them over so the flat bottoms are facing up. Using an offset spatula or flat knife, spread a thin layer of white icing over half of a cookie and a thin layer of chocolate icing over the other half. Place on a wire rack, icing side up, and repeat with the remaining cookies. Let the icing set for at least 15 minutes before serving.
