Spread the love

Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 500 g flour
  • 6 g baking powder
  • 150 g sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 250 g butter
  • 30 g cocoa powder
  • 50 g sugar
  • 2 tbsp milk

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 40 minutes

Add the eggs to the flour mixed with baking powder and sugar and knead into a dough with the cold butter. Divide the dough in half. Mix one half of the dough with the cocoa, sugar and milk. Roll out one piece of each type of dough and form a log. Use these to create black and white pastries in various combinations. For example, wrap a dark log in light dough, or layer a light and a dark sheet of dough on top of each other and wrap two different colored logs in the log. Place the pastry on a baking sheet lined with baking paper and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (top/bottom heat) for about 10-12 minutes. The sky’s the limit when it comes to designing.
