Ingrediente/Ingredients:
- 300 gr. faina/flour
- 150 gr. zahar/sugar
- 200 gr. unt/butter
- 3 linguri cacao/tbs. cocoa
- 2 oua/eggs
- esenta vanilie/vanilla extract
- esenta rom/rum extract

Se fac 2 compozitii, 1 alba si alta neagra. Pentru compozitia alba amestecam 100 gr. unt + 1 galbenus + esenta de vanilie + 75 gr. zahar + 150 gr. faina/We need 2 doughs, one white and one black. For the white one: mix together 100 gr. butter + 1 yolk + vanilla extract + 75 gr. sugar + 150 gr. flour

Pentru cea neagra: 100 gr. unt + 1 ou + esenta de rom + 75 gr. zahar + 150 gr. faina amestecata cu cele 3 linguri de cacao/For the black one: mix 100 gr. butter + 1 egg + rum extract + 75 gr. sugar + 150 gr. flour mixed with 3 tbs. cocoa

Si iese asta

Le bagam la frigider pentru 30 min., dar cum eu nu am rabdare cu nimic, le-am pus in congelator pentru 5 min. Scoatem si pe masa infainata intindem foile/Put it in the fridge for 30 min.

Sa zicem ca am reusit

Se unge foia cu albus, are rol de lipici intre straturi/Lightly brush the top of the white dough with a little egg white, it will act like a glue

Taiem in jumatate/Cut in half

Se suprapun foile si se baga iar la rece. Apoi taiem fasii de aprox. 1 cm.......ma rog, in reteta nu scrie strambe, asa cum le-am taiat eu.../ Cut strips

Si acum alternam fasiile, nu uitati de albus/ place the second strip on top of the first (alternate colors so you have white, black, white, black pattern)

Cam asa arata, le bagam iar la rece. Am incercat un experiment (vazut pe net, desigur) si unul din batoane l-am imbracat in coca neagra...sa vedem ce iese. Batoanele se pot lasa in congelator si 1 luna de zile, doar le scoateti cand vreti sa aveti biscuiti de rontait/It will look like that. Wrap the black dough around the checkerboard layers until you have a smooth surface that encloses the checkerboard design. Wrap in plastic and freeze until firm. Can freeze dough for up to a month.
