Bake for 12 minutes, let cool on rack before frosting.

Cream butter, blend in powdered sugar, vanilla, and alternate with 1/3 cup milk. Remove half frosting into separate bowl, the remaining frosting will become chocolate frosting. To 1st mixing bowl add 1/3 cup cocoa powder plus 1-2 TBSP additional milk. Beat until smooth.

Frost the bottom of cookie 1st with vanilla frosting other half with chocolate. These remind me of the bakery that used to be in Weymouth Landing, (Whitey's) and Mike's Pastry in North End.
