is bavarian cream the same as pastry cream
Bavarian cream Though it does not pipe smoothly because of its gelatin, it could substitute for pastry cream as a filling for doughnuts. American "Bavarian Cream doughnuts" are filled with a version of a crème pâtissière (pastry cream), not true bavarois.
Black and white cookie The origin of the black-and-white cookie in New York City is commonly traced to Glaser's Bake Shop in Yorkville, founded in 1902 by Bavarian immigrants. The black-and-white cookie was among the original recipes used by the bakery.[2] Half-moon cookies, however, can be traced to Hemstrought's Bakery in Utica, New York, around 1925.[3] The relationship between the two origins is murky; it is likely that both recipes share a common German root, although the origin and name of Amerikaner in Germany is also unclear. Purported explanations include a corruption of the word Ammoniumhydrogencarbonat (ammonium bicarbonate, a leavening agent), or that the cookie was (re)introduced to Germany by American GIs in the 1950s.[4] German Amerikaner are often frosted entirely with vanilla.[5] In the former East Germany, due to anti-American sentiment, the name AmmonplÃ¤tzchen (Ammonia cookies) was used.[6]
