I have made these, and people have told me that they taste just like shortbread because of the texture, and the wonderful taste.

1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
3 Tbsp milk
1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp salt
2 Tbsp cocoa
1 Tbsp butter, or margarine softened

Cream first amount of butter and sugar together, beat in egg, vanilla and milk.
Stir flour, baking powder and salt together and add. mix into a ball.
Divide into 2 portions.

To first portion add cocoa and remaining butter. Mix well.
Roll out each portion between sheets of waxed paper to 1/8-inch thick.
Place white layer over chocolate.
Remove top paper, roll as for jelly roll, removing bottom paper as you roll.
Wrap and chill overnight.
Slice thinly and place on baking sheets.
