It's cookie time at Chez Diva......I love this time of year!! The following recipe is one of my Mom's (I have her copy in her handwriting, framed and hanging in my kitchen!).....my favorite cookie of hers....and now it's also my daughter's favorite, so she'll be getting a big box of them in the next couple of weeks.

Pin Wheel Cookies

1 c. butter
2 c. sugar
2 eggs, beaten
3 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
1 sq. bittersweet chocolate, melted OR 3 T. cocoa + 1 tsp. butter

Mix in order given (except for chocolate).

Divide in half. Add melted chocolate to one half and work it in thoroughly. Roll out each half between wax paper, then place one on top of the other.

Roll together like a jelly roll. Chill. Slice thin. Bake at 350 until light brown (about 10-12 minutes) They will spread just a bit, so don't put slices too closely together.

This is a pretty cookie.


Happy baking!
