Black and White Cookies 6.22.11

Yes, I'm obsessed with Black and White Cookies

I made these during class (we had a lot of extra time).  I overbaked them by 3 or 4 mintues, so they turned out over dry.  I forgot to bring in my lemon extract, so I substituted with lemon juice (I should have used lemon zest) and I didn't add enough so the cookies were not lemony enough.  Icing came out okay, although I added a littlt bit too much black food coloring to the chocolate icing.  Also, when I was scooping them, I forgot to press down the second portion scoop into the baking sheet, so the cookies baked up higher than usual.


The sizing was okay, and the final presentation looks good.  Next time they will be perfect.
