These cookies are mixed, wrapped in wax paper, chilled, sliced and then baked. My grandmother and my mother both made these and now I make them for my family.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ½ cups sifted all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch salt
½ cup butter
½ cup white sugar
1 egg yolk
3 tablespoons milk
1 (1 ounce) square unsweetened chocolate

Steps:

  • Combine butter and sugar and egg yolk. Add dry ingredients and milk alternately.
  • Divide dough into 2 equal parts. Melt chocolate over low heat and add to one half of the dough.
  • Use a rolling pin and roll each half into a rectangle. Put the chocolate rectangle on top of the vanilla one. Roll up like a jelly roll in wax paper.
