Do this choco treat like you would a jelly roll.

Yield Makes one 12-inch log

Why not butter?
Shortening is more stable than butter. It helps the dough keep its shape, making it easier to roll. You can buy shortening, like Crisco, in leading supermarkets.

Best served with a cup of hot chocolate.

1 In a mixing bowl, sift 1 1/2 cups flour with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon baking powder. Set aside.

2 Using an electric mixer, cream together 1/2 cup shortening and 1/2 cup sugar. Mix thoroughly. Add 1 egg yolk and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Add the sifted flour to the creamed mixture alternately with 3 tablespoons milk to form dough.

3 Divide dough into two equal parts. To one part, add 1 square unsweetened chocolate (melted). Mix well.

4 On a lightly floured board or wax paper, roll white dough to about 1/8-inch-thick.

5 Roll the chocolate dough in the same size and place on top of the white dough. Roll up a la jelly roll and wrap in waxed paper. Chill. 8 Ready to bake? Leave the frozen dough to thaw.
