checkerboard and pinwheel icebox cookies.

These cookies are from the first week of class. They were fun to make! My partner and I added curry to the plain dough to contrast with the chocolate. It was delicious! I have to work on those checkerboards. Chef said they needed to be more square shaped. And they do! Those are more of a rectangle shape. Oh well, thats what practice is for!
