Instructies
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C, or gas mark 4).
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

- Shape the dough into a ball and divide it in half.
- Set one half aside.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the cocoa powder and nondairy milk into one half of the dough until well combined.
- If the dough feels too dry, add a bit more milk.
- Flatten both the vanilla and chocolate doughs into separate rectangles of equal size, about ¾ inch (2 cm) thick.
- Cut each rectangle in half.
- Stack them alternately (vanilla-chocolate-vanilla-chocolate), gently pressing them together to form a rectangular roll.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Remove the dough and slice into 15 equal pieces.
- Arrange the slices on the prepared baking sheets, leaving 1 inch (2.
- 5 cm) between cookies.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden and the tops are almost firm.
