Ingredients:

2 cup Unsalted butter or margarine
1 1/4 cup Sugar
1 tsp Pure vanilla extract
1/4 tsp Salt
5 cup Unbleached all purpose flour
1/2 cup Cocoa

Instructions:

Cream butter or margarine and sugar. Add vanilla. Add flour and salt and blend well. Divide dough in half. Add cocoa to 1/2 of dough. Let rest. Roll 1/4 inch cylinders of chocolate and plain vanilla dough about 12 inches long. Arrange in checkerboard by alternating 6 cylinders of chocolate and vanilla dough, contrasting each time to six layers total. Press tightly. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill at least 1/2 hour. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. With a sharp knife, slice the dough into rounds about 1/3-inch thick. Place 1 inch apart on a parchment covered baking sheet. Bake for about 10 minutes or until lightly golden. Yield: approximately 4 dozen cookies
