Ingredients
Instructions
- Beat all ingredients together (except flour and chocolate chips) until fluffy with a mixer.
- Stir in the flour until well combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Drop by spoonfuls onto a baking sheet and bake at 300°F for 10 minutes.
Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter texture, consider using half butter and half vegetable oil instead of all oil. If you prefer a sweeter cookie, you can increase the powdered sugar slightly. Make sure to use room temperature eggs to achieve a fluffy batter. If you want to add a twist, try incorporating nuts or dried fruits, which pairs beautifully with Color Cookies.
Serving Suggestions
These Black and White Chips cookies are delicious on their own but can also be served with a glass of milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat. For a festive touch, you could plate them alongside Color Cookies during celebrations. They also make a great addition to cookie platters or dessert tables.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature to keep them fresh for up to a week. If you want to maintain their softness, place a slice of bread in the container. To reheat, pop them in the microwave for a few seconds or warm them in a 300°F oven for about 5 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use different types of chocolate chips?
Absolutely! You can substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips for milk chocolate or even try dark chocolate chips for a richer flavor. Mixing in white chocolate chips can also create a delightful contrast, enhancing the black and white theme of the cookies.
What if I don't have Crisco?
If Crisco is unavailable, you can substitute with an equal amount of unsalted butter. Just keep in mind that using butter will change the texture slightly, making the cookies a bit more chewy. Alternatively, you can use coconut oil for a different flavor profile.
How do I know when the cookies are done baking?
The cookies should be lightly golden around the edges but still soft in the center. They will continue to firm up as they cool on the baking sheet. Keep an eye on them, as baking times can vary based on your oven.
