WHAT'S BLACK AND WHITE...AND BACK?

Until recently, I think the only time I saw a gluten-free Black & White Cookie was upstate, at the Gluten Free Bread Basket, which is long gone. So I was glad when I recently spotted some for sale at Risotteria (right)! They're delish—my only complaint is that the icing sometimes seems to be more attracted to the plastic wrapper than to the cookie (which the wrapper keeps fresh and moist for days). Could this be a job for wax paper?

And hey—I'm glad I'm not the only person who thinks of them as half-moons.
