Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder to make sure the mixture is smooth and lump-free.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter and caster sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, continuing to beat until well combined.
Gradually add the flour mixture in two additions, alternating with the milk, beating just until everything is combined and a smooth dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface. Divide the dough into small balls, about 2 teaspoons each.
Roll each dough ball on the work surface to form a thin rectangle, approximately 3x4 inches in size.
Carefully roll the dough rectangle tightly starting from the long side to create a wafer roll.
Place the chocolate wafer rolls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each roll.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just set and the wafers are slightly firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, the wafer rolls are ready to serve or store in an airtight container for up to a week.
