An Easter version of the classic New York-style black and white cookie! These Bakery-Style Iced Easter Cookies cookies are huge and soft and mimic the classic in all the right ways!

The classic black and white cookie is cakey and soft and, very importantly, large! The icing is actually spread onto the bottom of the cookie, the flat side, which helps give this cookie it's unique look with the rounded bottom and half vanilla flavored / half chocolate flavored icing on top.
