Easter Shortbread Twists - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/4 cup flour
    3/4 cup rice flour
    3/4 cup powdered sugar, plus additional for dusting
    12 tbsp (1 1/2 stick) cold butter, chopped
    1 None egg
    2 tbsp milk
    2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
Preparation
    Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
    Sift the flours and powdered sugar together into a bowl. Rub in butter using fingertips, until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Beat egg and milk in a small bowl. Add to the flour mixture and mix until dough comes together.
    Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently. Halve the mixture and knead cocoa powder into one half.
    Roll half tablespoonfuls of plain dough into 4-inch logs. Repeat using chocolate dough. Twist one plain and one chocolate log together, pressing ends together. Arrange on baking sheets.
    Bake for 15-20 mins until firm. Cool on baking sheets 5 mins. Remove to wire racks; cool completely. Store twists in an airtight container.
