Does anyone have a tried and true chinese marble cookie recipe? I have been searching for years for a good recipe.

Haven't tried this one myself yet, but it's supposedly very good :) :

Chinese Marble Cookies
1 cup vegetable shortening
1 cup sugar
1 egg
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 ounce unsweetened chocolate, melted

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Beat the shortening with sugar and egg until light and fluffy. Add dry ingredients and beat until well combined. Add vanilla. Add chocolate a little at a time, cutting in with a knife. Do not stir. Form dough into balls and place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten with the bottom of a sugar-coated glass. Bake 8 to 10 minutes until lightly golden.
