[@viewer608]

I lived in Atlanta for thirty five years and have recently moved to Blue Ridge. I have been a fan for years and am more of a fan now that I know you are in Atlanta. Your videos are wonderful and always fun to watch and try. No question you are the best.

[@foodjazz]

I've never had a black and white cookie before. I know they are popular in NY. They look good!

[@dianemilligan3839]

Yum!! Half-Moon cookies! My grandmother made these all the time when I was a child. They go great with milk or coffee.

[@madammezel83]

I used to get these weekly from Zaros here in NY! Love black and whites! Im gonna try this recipe soon. Thanks Steph!

[@anthonyescobar4083]

Joy... I just wanted to tell you i use this recipe and your cookies taste amazing. Everyone loved the taste of your cookies

[@reenie38]

Enjoyed making these. I did a cheat though. I piped the dough since it was like a thick cake batter and I also used piping bags to put the icings on giving a good half and half effect. Extremely tasty and the hint of lemon genius.

[@o0Avalon0o]

That's a good idea; I appreciate you sharing the experience.

[@durantaty28]

We're making these in my cooking class tomorrow, and to be honest your recipe is exactly like the ones we use in my class

[@fredstratton3079]

Great video. Thanks. I made a Christmas version. Red and green with cinnamon flavoring the red and pepperment flavoring the green. The family loved them. Cheers.

[@MsDramaQueen1213]

I literally watch every minute of this!! thank you for the recipe!

[@KentSpain85]

GOD these look so good! I haven't had them in so long! I'm going to make these soon :D Thanks Stephanie!

[@hyojinlee]

I live in NY and I DO see this cookie in every deli :) Thank you for the recipe!

[@AniasKitchen]

I have never heard of those cookies but now I would like to have some on my plate :) I will have to do some baking this weekend it seems :)))

[@priscillasylvester7666]

They look delicious! Will try this! Greetings from Suriname

[@HouseScraper]

This one of my favorite cookie holiday time will have to give this one a try

[@CatherineEllenMartin]

I am about to make Half Moon cookies for the first time (although mine will be chocolate like the ones from Hemstrought Bakery in Utica NY). I was very nervous about getting them nicely round and keeping the frosting neat - your helpful video addressed both of those concerns. Thanks!

[@CraftyLoops]

I have never heard of these before, I don't think I have ever seen them anywhere in Northern Ireland. They look totally delicious. Thank you for sharing these Stephanie. I was wondering, because I've never heard of these so I wouldn't know, do they freeze well once made (that is of course if there are any left over to freeze, lol)? Thanks again for sharing. Lee x

[@MrTincansailor]

They sure look great. Quite a process to make them. Thanks for the recipe, I'll give them a try...

[@Rih10017]

Great Recipe! Here in Germany those cookies are called 'Americans' :)

[@eleanormorris6774]

Been looking for this recipe forever.THANK YOU!!!!

[@Frühobst]

hi stephanie, I have a fun fact for you. these cookies are pretty popular in german bakeries and are called "americans" ("amerikaner") here in germany ;-)

[@brainphelps1994]

prob the best cookies i ever had. hands down!!

[@reginabivona1282]

You know, I will definitely be saving this recipe!!!!

[@mrsTraveller64]

Thank you for the recipe and THANK YOU for saying all the amounts in gram also!!!

[@Simfu85]

In New Zealand we have something similar we call them neenish tart. You did great job! Again

[@Namrehs2004]

I didn't know you lived in Atlanta! I live near savannah!

[@HouseScraper]

This is one of favorite cookies

[@Paperista]

I've always heard that black and whites originated in upstate ny, Binghamton to be exact. A vanilla cookie and LEMON is just CRAZY, the cookie base is chocolate, very thin batter. Like a cupcake top with frosting on the bottom. And no fondant, please, what wedding cake baker dreamed that up? Heresy, the original way is the best. Elk's bakery in Endicott ny was the goal standard!

[@madeleineguenoun2384]

Looks delicious thank you 👏👏

[@834juancho]

Love you stephanie. I made your cheesecake and it was hit.

[@delaneymatthews9564]

Wow your a great baker! :)

[@djnevous3us]

My fav cookie since I was a kid

[@hazel1548]

After dividing the icing, could I add a small amount of almond extract to the white icing (I know almond extract is strong)?

[@mappaeliphas8885]

Hi Stephanie!! Do you know if there's any way to substitute cake flour!? I'd like to try your red velvet cupcakes!! Here where I live when I ask for it they give me a cake mix ready to make!!

[@DarkScarlettVixen]

Had a sudden craving to try these...I'm on the West coast and they aren't as popular over here but....oh my goodness, those look absolutely divine... I'm not at all talented in the kitchen...

[@smrab1993]

hi, can the white icing be used on cakes too?

[@joyofbaking]

Yes, you could use the icing for cakes.

[@smrab1993]

thanks :)

[@kiatbettytantang7036]

Good demonstration

[@zinebanis]

Plz steph whats kind of oven do you use to bake??

[@joyofbaking]

I have a GE Profile convection oven.

[@zinebanis]

thanks

[@girlgirl0505able]

Hello may I know if it is okay to use greaseproof paper instead of the parchment paper?

[@StaceyDono]

Would using a pastry bag work to add the frosting? I'm afraid I'll make a huge sloppy mess if I use a spoon or a spatula.

[@born2flyau]

Stephanie, In Australia we call them NEENISH TARTS. Half chocolate and half PINK Icing. They are Yum.

[@reenie38]

I have to disagree, Neenish tarts are an actual tart with a filling of mock cream and sometimes jam then the icing.

[@Sisterfifi]

In Australia they are called Neenish Tarts, and they have a filling of mock cream under the icing.

[@joyofbaking]

That sounds delicious.

[@beautyekong]

thanks. can i use coco powder in place of chocolate?

[@blackcoffeguzzler]

"...also known as" Also known as give me that entire platter of cookies. Please 😗

[@aliciaseecharan]

Softess cookie ever..... yummy.

[@Kburd-wr6dq]

Looks good!

[@bevyoung304]

Hi Stephanie...I was wondering if you've ever made chocolate black and white cookies or if you would know how much cocoa powder you would need to make the vanilla ones into chocolate? Thanks, Beverly

[@abby-a]

She is making black and white cookies and she is putting the 2 different color icings on the same, do you see this america? we need to come together as black and white people just like these delicious cookies

[@lalyfdez-daza6461]

Hello, a question please. I find it a lot of work to have to use a paper template and make the cookies one by one. If we put the dough in the fridge to harden, could I use a rolling pin to roll out the dough ? could I then cut with a cookie cutter ? thank you very much from Spain.

[@joyofbaking]

I’m sorry but I’ve never tried that so I don’t know how that would work.

[@lalyfdez-daza6461]

Gracias!@@joyofbaking

[@AussieAngeS]

These are not popular here in Australia but they can be ;) yum

[@poppyk4708]

Delicious!!!

[@TrapusKatapult]

People should call them "Yin & Yang cookies!" haha :)

[@liareiscorreia1209]

Can I substitute lemon extract by lemon juice in a larger amount ?

[@salmakhalifa3701]

Am gonna bake these sooooon

[@seanyoung3756]

First and good recipe

[@alecarmona2275]

this black and white cookies look just like a mexican cookie that sell i everywhere in here (mexico)

[@thomasgaga1]

I don't see Cake Flour in my grocery store and i'm in the UK. Is this also known as self-raising flour?

[@joyofbaking]

Thomas Sidney Cake flour is a low gluten flour. The type I use doesn't contain baking powder and salt, so it's not the same as self raising flour.

[@ganzschoenanders]

Ohhh, awesomd recipe! In Germany we call these cookies "Americans" :D

[@populargirls.327]

Some good cookies yum!

[@glenpiro313]

Awesome thank you!

[@vitagulya3931]

can I use all purpose flour?

[@charleslucas2552]

Do I have to leave the cookies overnight before eating it?

[@joyofbaking]

No.

[@nathanmusic5657]

In central ny we say in as half moons

[@sarahosamaali6563]

i have been watching you for a while almost all of your videos but in the cookies play list you have a lot of cookies kinds so would you please say the difference between each other and i mean the base of the cookie not the icing thank you in advance Stephanie and i hope the most success for you keep it up ......:)

[@rse7]

Can I only use plain flour instead of cake flour?

[@TheGamingTechs]

reeme Add a tablespoon of cornstarch to all purpose flour

[@sallygalalelmorshdy1615]

can i use lemon instead

[@nellytjoa6907]

Can i used glucose instead off golden syrup ?

[@joyofbaking]

Yes, that should be okay.

[@misoni74]

Question, what is cakeflour? In Denmark, we call these cookies for night and day.

[@TheGamingTechs]

misoni74 Cake flour is All Purpose flour mixed with cornstarch

[@CurlyWurly25]

Hello Stephanie, I love your Videos. This Video is funny for me, because the black&White Cookies are called in Germany "Amerikaner" means Americans in german. why this is so, is not clearly documented. Have a nice Day :)

[@franciscovelasco826]

Where do you get the large eggs?

[@TheGamingTechs]

Francisco Velasco Your local supermarket there are different types of eggs. When making stuff like this the size of the eggs really doesn't matter ...

[@parthchhatbar3397]

For making eggless cookies what I can do ??

[@joyofbaking]

I have many recipes for shortbread cookies which are eggless. Here is the link. www.joyofbaking.com/shortbreads/shortbread.html

[@priyamathoo1549]

what can i use instead of cake flour?

[@asmaaish95]

1 cup of all purpose flour minus 2 tablespoons plus 2 tbsp cornstarch as a substitute for cake flour =D

[@priyamathoo1549]

thank you

[@asmaaish95]

you're welcome ^^

[@jbooks888]

We call them 'neenish tarts' but they are filled with cream under the icing.

[@joyofbaking]

jbooks888 Yes I've read about neenish tarts. I like the idea of a pastry shell and then filling it with the two (black and white) creams. I'm going to have to try baking them.

[@shannonvenus1818]

Can I use different colors

[@joyofbaking]

Yes, you could do that.

[@robertburnett190]

In Australia they're called Neenish Tarts

[@joyofbaking]

While these look like Neenish Tarts, they are different as they are a cookie and don't have a filling.

[@alishabb5477]

O thanks

[@truth4004]

Making them for Halloween, no decoration.

[@mappaeliphas8885]

Oh! Here you use cake flour as well!!

[@fhernachingerzwerg]

In Germany they are known as "Amerikaner", Americans. Don't know why though, since americans don't seem to know them that well :D

[@heribertozavala2530]

The glaze is called poured fondant

[@qeqenstandx3]

We call them Americans in Germany. :)

[@fhernachingerzwerg]

I wanted to comment that too :D

[@zaserrano]

why does she put demonstration for each video?

[@theresabollman8061]

my computer must be skipping, never heard the temp.

[@joyofbaking]

I say the oven temperature at the beginning of the video. There is always a link to the written recipe in the description box.

[@theresabollman8061]

@@joyofbaking Thank you. My computer is starting your video about 1 minute in. Not sure why. Have a great day.

[@Jeni10]

Darn! I thought they were Neenish Tarts! ☹️

[@anisahaslam1629]

It's brown and white :p

[@bubtheepic3507]

It's so

[@brucefuller9056]

Hi Stephanie you should not call them black. And white cookies there called nenish tarts

[@joyofbaking]

Yes, depending on where you live they go by different names. Here in the States we call them Black and White Cookies.

[@gossipgirl5683]

In Germany they're called "Americans" :D

[@BobsGT235]

Video is good, but just gets confusing everytime you mention the metric measurements.

[@joyofbaking]

We have a world wide audience and recommend weighing in grams because it is easier and much more accurate so we will always mention the gram measurement.
