The black-and-white cookie, that frumpy and oversize mainstay of New York City bakeries and delis, has not endured by dint of its taste. Unlike other edible icons, like New York cheesecake or bagels, there is no such thing as a delicious black-and-white cookie. They are either edible or inedible. Fresh-baked and home-baked are the best.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Butter 2 baking sheets and set aside. Combine sugar and butter in a bowl and beat until fluffy. Add the eggs, milk and extracts. Mix until smooth.
- Combine the flours, baking powder and salt in a bowl and mix. Add the dry ingredients to the wet in batches, stirring until combined. Drop soup spoonfuls of the dough 2 inches apart on the baking sheets. Bake until the edges begin to brown, 20 to 30 minutes. Cool.
- To make frosting, place the confectioners' sugar in a large bowl. Gradually add some boiling water, stirring until mixture is thick and spreadable. Place half the frosting in the top of a double boiler set over simmering water; add the chocolate. Warm, stirring until chocolate is melted and the frosting is smooth. Remove from heat.
- Brush half the cookie with the chocolate and the other half with the white frosting.
