1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup icing sugar
1 cup flour
1/8 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp + 1 tbsp milk, divided
1 tbsp cocoa powder
In a bowl, add softened butter and icing sugar. Whisk it till it’s light, fluffy and pale in colour.
Then add flour, baking powder and 2 tbsp milk and form it into a smooth dough.
Divide the dough into 2 equal halves. Add in cocoa powder and 1 tbsp milk into one half of the dough.
Roll out both the doughs into rectangles of 1/4th cm thickness each. Carefully take the vanilla dough and place it over the rolled out chocolate dough.
From either of the longer length start rolling the dough inwards to form a cylinder. Role it tightly to get more swirls.
Freeze the rolled dough for 15-20 mins. Cut the roll with a sharp knife into equal thickness. This will yield around 20 cookies.
Set a flat pan over low-medium heat and place a stand in the centre.
Place the swirl cookies in batches on the plate greased and lined with parchment paper.
Put the plate over the stand, cover it with the lid and bake for 13-15 minutes. Let them cool completely before serving or storing.
