Mix sugar, shortening and margarine well in a bowl

Add vanilla and the eggs to the above mixture and mix well

Sieve all the dry ingredients apart from cocoa in a separate bowl and add bit by bit to the mixture.

Divide the dough into two and add cocoa to one

Mix well.

Blend the two into the pattern that you like... I chose chessboard.

I made strands and alternated them.. 4 beside the putting on top of the lower ones to the height you want.

Refrigerate for one hour to get a better result...

Unfortunately, I don't have a fridge
