Shortbread dough
Beat the butter and sugar in a bowl until the mixture becomes lighter in colour. Combine the flour, cocoa powder and salt, mix into the butter mixture and combine to form a soft dough. Roll out the dough into a rectangle (approx. 4 mm thick) between two sheets of baking paper, chill for approx. 30 mins.
