Chocolate Babka

Chocolate babka gets its finest treatment at William Greenberg Desserts, the Upper East Side bakery baking for New Yorkers since 1946, where it’s made from Aunt Gertrude’s own recipe. Her original sour-cream yeast dough is wound with melted butter, brown sugar, and chocolate, then blanketed in her streusel crumbs for a loaf that eats somewhere between coffee cake and pastry. It’s a family recipe kept alive at the same Madison Avenue kitchen behind the city’s #1 black & white cookies. Perfect for a weekend brunch, a coffee-and-cake afternoon, or a holiday gift for someone who knows their babka.

The half vanilla, half chocolate cookie from Manhattan’s William Greenberg Bakery, of course. A beloved classic since 1946, New Yorkers are fiercely loyal to this quintessential local delight—it’s been voted the “Best of New York” and even Jerry Seinfeld knows the best way to eat them: by getting some black and some white in every bite. “Nothing mixes better than vanilla and chocolate,” says Jerry, explaining the delicate art of eating these cake-like treasures in Seinfeld episode 74. We wholeheartedly concur.

Sophisticated, delightful, and outright delicious, these legendary cookies are handcrafted and made fresh every morning—and now this unique taste of New York is available wherever you are. Lucky you.
