Choco-Vanilla Butter Cookies

There is nothing like home made cookies with tea. And a choco-vanilla butter cookie is the tastiest option. The best part is that you can make the dough and store it in the refrigerator and use it when ever you feel like eating a warm baked cookie. It can also satisfy your sudden cravings for something sweet. I made a few colourful ones too just to amuse my baby who was waiting patiently beside me while I did the baking.
Ingredients
200grms butter (softened)
2/3 cup, 150 grms caster sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract/essence
1 egg
2 1/2 cups(375 grms) plain flour
1 1/2 tbsp cocoa Powder
Method
1.In a small bowl combine butter, egg,caster sugar and vanilla essence. Beat  till light and fluffy.
2.Mix in flour(sieved), mix to form a firm dough.
3. Divide the dough to two equal parts,to one part dough add cocoa powder and mix well,until well combined.Knead each piece of dough separately on a floured surface until smooth.
4. Cover both the doughs with cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
5.Take out the dough and roll it into shapes according to your creativity. You can arrange both the doughs alternatively to give it a great physical appearance.
6. Heat oven to 375 degrees and bake for 8-9 minutes.
