Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup shortening
1-1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 tbsp milk
2 tsp peppermint extract
2-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
2 oz unsweetened chocolate, melted

Directions:

In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, milk and extract. Combine the flour, salt and baking powder; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Divide dough in half. Add chocolate to one portion and mix well.
Roll each portion between waxed paper into a 16-in. x 7-in. rectangle, about 1/4-in. thick. Remove top sheet of waxed paper; place plain dough over chocolate dough. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm.
Unwrap dough and cut into 1/4-in. slices. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool. Yield: 4 dozen.
