    My friend Meg over at Megan's Munchies is having a cool Betty Crocker giveaway. You have until April 19 midnight central time to enter, so hurry over to leave her a comment!
    Also, don't forget my giveaway ends today at 7 PM, so if you haven't left a comment for it yet, please do by clicking here!

    I have always been fascinated by the Black and White cookies I would see in bakeries, but I never had the urge to make them. Then, while looking for something to make and share with some friends, I came across a Black and White cookie recipe in my Cooking Light cookbook.

    I decided I was going to make these. Imagine my distress when I found out I couldn't because the jar of applesauce in my fridge was no longer good!

    This last Tuesday I had posted FaceBook that I was trying to decide what to make that day when Susie left me a message that I could drop some goodies off for her and Dave asked where his were. They are both local, Susie is only a few miles down the road from me and is married to my dad's cousin (can you believe I never met her before today and I met her because of my blog?!) and Dave works for 99 Hits FM, a country radio station in this area. Since I was going to Potsdam for lunch with my friends from work on Thursday, I decided to drop them both off some goodies....so they were the recipients of some of the black and white cookies! I had messages from both of them when I got home that they enjoyed the cookies! I'm glad you did.

    For the cookie recipe click here. The recipe on AR tells you to bake the cookies at 375 for 20-30 minutes. That is WAY too long. My first batch I put in for 20 minutes and they were too dark. My next batch I put them in for 15 minutes and it was perfect. So, I suggest you watch your cookies as they are baking and don't go into lala land like I did and not pay attention or your first batch will be a bit darker than you want them to be!
