One of the difficulties in food blogging is that I mostly do not weight my ingredients, so the recipes are an approximation. but you know, you can simply steal the ideas and use it as you like with your own style ;3
Cookies! Honestly, I suck at baking pastries, but this one is so very easy that is easier to success than to fail.
I read on the Intarweb that you call this kind of pastry puff-pastry. Nice! We call it 'pasta frolla'-
Sans Swirly cookies!
125 grams of butter
250 grams of flour
vanilla powder
cocoa powder
2 eggs ( the red only)
around 150 grams of sugar
mix 125 grams of cold butter (fridge cold) with 250 grams of flour (more or less)
Puff pastry must not get too warm during the whole process, so do this: cut the butter in small pieces, mix with some of the flour, pinch the butter and the flour making small chunks. when the butter has incorporated the flour, add the remaining of it, the sugar, the eggs and the vanilla powder.
Work the dough with your hand for a bit, just the time to get it smooth because the flour has been totally absorbed.
Put it in the fridge for a ten minutes.
Cut the dough in two parts, add the cocoa powder (at your own discretion, but mind that too much will dry the dough) in one half, work it until it gets smooth again.
Another 10 minutes of fridge for our dough!
At this point flat the two balls of dough with a pin, or a bottle if you don't have one. The foils have to be thin, let's make it a 3 millimeters. Put the chocolate foil over the white one, and roll them together.
Cut the roll to make cookies! See, swirly cookies!
bake for a 15/20 minutes at 180 degrees, pay attention 'cause puff pastry burn quite easily. And now, try not to nom them all in a minute :9

cold, fridge cold... the pastry gets softer and butter-y. This kind of dough is better if you don't work it too much. I made another batch after this, with only chocolate and one egg, whole this time. Not bad, a bit harder, probably due to the fact I used less eggs, but delicious anyway. It will be hard to keep some for the boy, tomorrow :9
