BLACK AND WHITE COOKIES
From the cooks at America's Test Kitchen, here is a carefully tested and surprisingly easy homemade recipe for New York City style black and white cookies.

Time 2h
Number Of Ingredients 15
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in medium bowl. Set aside.
- In a large bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar together on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla extract, and beat on high speed until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl and beat again as needed to combine. Reduce to low speed and add the dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with the sour cream. Beat everything on low until combined and no pockets of flour remain. Batter is extremely thick.
- Using a greased 1/4-cup dry measuring cup, drop mounds of dough 4 inches apart on prepared baking sheets- 6 cookies per sheet. Bake for 16-18 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before icing.
- Whisk the confectioners' sugar, 6 Tablespoons milk, the corn syrup, vanilla extract, and salt together in a medium bowl. Transfer 1 cup to a separate bowl, add remaining Tablespoon of milk and the cocoa powder. Whisk until combined.
- Spread vanilla icing onto half of the cookies- the flat side. Refrigerate for 15 minutes or until set so that the icings do not bleed into each other. Spread chocolate icing onto other side and allow the icing to set completely, about 1 hour, before serving.
- Cookies will stay fresh in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
BASIC MUFFINS
What could be nicer than warm classic but basic muffins in a napkin on the morning breakfast table? And they are so quick and easy to make, particularly since the ingredients are only lightly mixed, not beaten smooth.

FREEZER-FRIENDLY EGG WHITE MUFFINS
These muffins are totally customizable when it comes to fillings, so dream up your ultimate omelet, then whisk all of those ingredients into an egg white base. I'm a breakfast super-enthusiast, so when mornings are rushed (i.e. 8 out of 7 days a week!), I grab one or two of them from the freezer, pop them in the microwave for 1 minute and then enjoy a hot meal in one hand while holding my little guy in the other.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the egg whites, spinach, tomatoes, mushrooms, cheese, chives, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Divide the mixture evenly among the 12 muffin pan cups.
- Bake the muffins until the egg whites are fully cooked, for 20 to 25 minutes. Let the muffins cool for 5 minutes in the pan before using a knife to loosen them from the cups.
- Top each muffin with diced avocado and serve immediately.
- If freezing, transfer the fully cooled muffins to a resealable freezer bag and store them in the freezer for up to 3 months. To reheat, microwave the muffins until thawed, about 45 seconds. Then top them with the avocado and serve.
Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start baking, measure and prepare all of your ingredients. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't forget anything.
- Use good quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will directly affect the quality of your muffins. Use fresh, high-quality ingredients whenever possible.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in tough, dense muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill the muffin cups evenly: Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full. This will help the muffins to rise evenly.
- Bake the muffins at the correct temperature: The temperature of your oven will affect the texture and doneness of your muffins. Be sure to preheat your oven to the correct temperature before baking.
- Don't overbake the muffins: Overbaking the muffins can result in dry, crumbly muffins. Bake the muffins just until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
