Chocolate Pinwheels - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    10 tablespoons butter, divided
    1 cup sugar
    1/4 brown sugar, packed
    1 egg
    1 3/4 teaspoons vanilla extract, divided
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
    2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preparation
    Soften 1/2 cup of the butter.
    Cream with the sugars.
    Add egg and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla and beat until light and fluffy.
    Add flour, baking powder, and 1/8 teaspoons of the salt and beat well.
    Divide dough in half and place each half between two sheets of wax paper.
    Roll each half of dough out into a 12 inch by 10 inch rectangle.
    Chill until almost firm, about 30 minutes.
    Meanwhile melt chocolate chips and remaining 2 tbsp butter.
    Add remaining 1/4 teaspoons vanilla and 1/4 teaspoons salt and mix well.
    Spread 1/2 of mixture over each rectangle of dough.
    Roll each rectangle up into a tight jelly roll and wrap in wax paper.
    Chill until firm, about 2 hours.
    Cut each roll into 1/8 inch slices and place on a parchment lined baking sheet.
    Bake at 350 F until lightly browned, about 7-10 minutes.
