BLACK AND WHITE COOKIES

Steps:

• Make the cookies: Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350˚ F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl until combined.
• Beat the butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, then the vanilla, beating well after each addition.
• Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat half of the flour mixture into the butter mixture until just combined. Beat in the sour cream, then beat in the remaining flour mixture.
• Using a large ice cream scoop or 1/4 cup measure, scoop mounds of dough and place 3 inches apart on the baking sheets (6 cookies per pan). Bake, rotating and switching the pans halfway through, until the cookies are puffed and the bottoms and edges are just starting to brown, about 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on the pans, then remove the cookies to a rack to cool completely.
• Make the icing: Sift the confectioners' sugar into a large bowl. Add 3 tablespoons milk, the corn syrup and vanilla and whisk until smooth and very thick but still spreadable. Remove half of the icing (about 1/2 cup) to a separate bowl and stir in the cocoa powder until smooth, thinning with up to 1 tablespoon milk, if needed.
• Turn the cookies flat-side up. Using a small offset spatula, spread the white icing on half of each cookie, making a straight, clean line in the center of the cookie. Return the cookies to the rack, and let sit, preferably in a cool place, until the icing is firm with a matte finish, at least 30 minutes. Spread the chocolate icing on the other half of the cookies. Let the icing set at room temperature, at least 2 hours and up to overnight.

LEMON WHITE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
• Beat the butter, sugar and lemon zest in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then beat in the lemon juice and vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the flour mixture in two batches until combined. Stir in the white chocolate chips with a wooden spoon.
• Drop heaping tablespoonfuls of dough about 2 inches apart on the prepared pans. Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cookies are just golden around the edges, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool 3 to 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.

ROLLED WHITE COOKIES

Steps:

• Cream together 1 cup white sugar and butter. Beat in the eggs, milk and flavoring. Sift flour, cream of tartar and baking soda. Stir into butter mixture.

CHOCOLATE AIR COOKIES WITH CHOCOLATE CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with baking parchment.
• Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching. Let chocolate cool slightly while preparing the egg whites.
• Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until foamy. Gradually add sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks. Stir cream of tartar into the egg whites.
• Scoop some of the egg whites into the cooled melted chocolate and fold until smooth. Fold the chocolate mixture into the remaining egg whites. Fold in vanilla extract. Stir chocolate chips into the mixture; drop by spoonful onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake until cookies set in their centers, 10 to 15 minutes.
