1/2 tsp of salt

Combine and soften butter with vanilla, egg and sugar then add into combination of salt, baking powder as well as flour. Blend very well.

Reserve 2/3 dough. Pour mixture of baking soda and cocoa to 1/3 remaining dough; blend with water.

Divide reserved dough in two and put each half on 10″ x 4″ rectangular sizes. Divide other dough (chocolate) into half as well and shape every half to create 10″ rolls.

Roll and wrap per rectangular dough around choco rolls. Wrap the rolls then let freeze. When ready for baking, cut the rolls with knife then put 2 pieces side-by-side together, while edges touch, on baking sheet that has been greased.

Lightly pinch on corners to create ears. Put chip on middle of round chocolate to represent eyes. Add cashew with curved-side down on middle of circles to create beak.

Put into oven and bake (350 degrees F) for approximately 8 to 10 minutes. Allow to cool before removing from baking sheet.
