Solid Black and White cookies and Purple and White for NYU graduation! A little pricey but worth it.
I had anastonishing experience after walking into William Greenberg Desserts on Amsterdam Avenue, their prices were lower and more affordable than they used to be! Their chocolate brownies used to be FIVE Dollars and now were $3.50! They huge blank & white cookies are half price of most bakeries in New York City. And most importantly, their ruggalahs might be the best I’ve tasted anywhere!
Stopped in for a sweet treat while in the area and picked up a classic black & white cookie! It was delicious, with a perfectly cakey texture and the chocolate coating had a rich, fudgey taste. Best one I’ve tried!
