My birthday treat to myself...

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

Those of us who live in the tri-state area are very familiar with the "black and white" cookie that's more like a cake. It's yellow cake with half frosted in white and the other in chocolate.  The local bakery here was old when I was a kid, so it's been here forever, and their black and whites are the best.

I once had to bring 2 dozen of them down to my brother in Florida as you couldn't get them there.  Now you see them in Wawa, and other such places but they're not the same.

So this is my birthday cake to me...

In New Zealand, we have a very poor copy of that we call neen tarts. Yours looks much better!

The secret is to not make the icing overly sweet.
