  • ¼ cup of chocolate chips, semi-sweet

How to Make Chocolate Vanilla Swirl Cookies:

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, add the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. then whisk everything until uniform, and set them aside. In a separate bowl, add the butter, then beat it for about 1 to 2 minutes until creamy, add the powdered sugar, and continue to beat until combined.

Step 2

Step 3

In that bowl, sift over the cocoa powder, then add the melted chocolate, and mix them well by hand until fully combined. Knead it on a flat surface until smooth, then cut it into 4 parts evenly, and roll each into a 1cm thick log. Cut each log into small pieces and roll them into 1cm balls, then repeat the same with the plain dough.

Step 4

Get 3 each of chocolate and plain dough, then arrange them into a circle alternately, and squeeze them tighter to the center. Roll them in your hands until swirls form and slightly flat. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or Silpat, then bake them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 20 to 22 minutes, and serve. Enjoy!
