Rainbow Cookies image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 5h

Yield about 70

Number Of Ingredients 13

Cooking spray
8 ounces almond paste, broken up
2 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs, separated, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon red food coloring
12 drops green food coloring
1 cup seedless raspberry jam
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped

Steps:

  • Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Coat three 9-by-13-inch baking pans with cooking spray, line the bottoms with parchment paper and coat with more cooking spray.
  • Beat the almond paste, butter, sugar and salt in a large bowl with a mixer on high speed
  • until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to medium; beat in the egg yolks, vanilla and lemon zest, then reduce the mixer speed to low and mix in the flour (the batter will be thick).
  • Beat the egg whites in a separate large bowl with a mixer on low speed; increase the speed to high and beat until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the batter in three batches. Divide the batter evenly among 3 bowls. Mix the red food coloring into one and the green into another, leaving the third plain. Pour one color batter into each pan; spread into a thin layer with an offset spatula.
  • Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until just firm, 14 to 16 minutes. Transfer to racks and let cool completely in the pans.
  • Remove the green layer to a cutting board; discard the parchment. Top with 1/2 cup jam, the plain layer, the remaining 1/2 cup jam and the red layer. Wrap the stack in plastic wrap. Top with a baking sheet and place a few heavy cans on top. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Make the glaze: Microwave the chocolate, stirring every 30 seconds, until smooth. Unwrap the stack and spread the chocolate on top using an offset spatula. Refrigerate until set, about 10 minutes. Cut into small squares.

ITALIAN TRI-COLOR COOKIES (RAINBOW COOKIES)



Italian Tri-Color Cookies (Rainbow Cookies) image

When I lived in New York, I used to get this delicious tri-color cookie from the Italian Bakery every year for the holidays. Once I moved down south, I was no longer able to get them. I found this recipe in Good Housekeepings "100 best Italian Recipes". The directions seem long and scary, but these cookies are actually very easy to make. I hope you enjoy them as much as my family and friends do.

Time 1h10m

Yield 36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

7 ounces almond paste
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
3/4 cup margarine or 3/4 cup butter, room temp
3 eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour, Sifted
1/4 teaspoon salt
15 drops green food coloring
15 drops red food coloring
2/3 cup apricot preserves (pressed into a coarse sieve to remove any large pieces of fruit)
3 ounces semisweet chocolate
1 teaspoon vegetable shortening (butter flavored Crisco preferably)

Steps:

  • Preheat Oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease 3 8"x8" metal baking pans. After greasing, line the bottoms of the pans with wax paper, smoothing the paper down onto the pan. Grease the tops of the wax paper and then flour the pans. Put aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, Beat together on medium-high speed the Almond Paste, Sugar, Almond Extract and butter until well blended. (there might be some small lumps of Almond Paste remaining and that's fine.).
  • Reduce speed to medium and beat in the eggs one at a time until blended.
  • Reduce speed to low and then add the flour and salt slowly to the mixture until combined.
  • Take two small bowls and add 1 rounded cup of batter into each bowl. (there should be another rounded cup of batter still in the original mixing bowl.).
  • Add 15 drops of red food color to one bowl and 15 drops of green food color to the other. Stir each bowl until evenly blended with color.
  • Spoon the untinted batter into one pan. With metal spatula spread batter evenly (layer will be about 1/4 inch thick). Repear with red batter in second pan and green batter in remaining pan.
  • Bake until set and toothpick inserted in center of layers comes out clean. 10-12 minutes.
  • Cool in pans on wire rack about 1/2 hour. Cake should be cool to the touch.
  • Run tip of knife around side of pans to loosen layers.
  • Lay a piece of wax paper on a flat surface that will be able to fit in refrigerator.
  • Take the green layer and flip over pan onto wax paper. Gently pull off the wax paper. Spread 1/3 cup of apricot preserves onto the green layer.
  • Take the untinted layer and remove from pan. Place it onto the green layer with the wax paper side up. Press down gently and then remove the wax paper.
  • Spread remaining 1/3 cup of Apricot preserves onto the untinted layer.
  • take the remaining red layer and remove from pan and place upon the white layer again with the wax paper side up. Press down gently and remove the wax paper.
  • In a 1 quart saucepan, heat chocolate and butter flavored crisco over low heat, stirring frequently, until melted.
  • Spread melted chocolate mixture on top of the red layer evenly. Do not put mixture on sides.
  • refrigerate until chocolate is firm, at least 1 hour. (at this point, if you want, you can cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days before serving).
  • To serve, with a large sharp knife, trim about 1/4 inch from the edges. Cut the stacked layers into 6 strips. Cut each strip crosswise into 6 pieces. You will get 36 square cookies from this.
  • Place the cookies in a single layer in a waxed paper lined container. They can be refrigerated for up to one week or freeze up to 3 months. These cookies must be kept in the fridge.

RAINBOW SLICE-AND-BAKE COOKIES



Rainbow Slice-and-Bake Cookies image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 3h

Yield About 36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 large egg yolks
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon each red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple gel food coloring
1 cup white candy melts

Steps:

  • Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter, granulated sugar and confectioners' sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the egg yolks and vanilla until smooth. Reduce the mixer speed to medium low and gradually beat in the flour mixture until the dough just comes together.
  • Divide the dough into 6 pieces: 2 large pieces (about 7 ounces each), 2 medium pieces (about 5 ounces each) and 2 small pieces (about 3 ounces each). Tint 1 large piece of dough red and the other orange, kneading the food coloring into the dough with gloved hands or a rubber spatula. Tint 1 medium piece of dough yellow and the other green. Tint 1 small piece of dough blue and the other purple.
  • Using gloved hands, roll the purple dough into a 7-inch log (about 3/4-inch-thick) on a floured sheet of parchment paper; set aside. Using a rolling pin, roll out the remaining pieces of dough into rectangles on separate floured sheets of parchment paper, dusting with more flour as needed: 3 1/2 by 7 inches for blue; 5 by 7 1/2 inches for green; 6 by 8 inches for yellow; 7 by 8 1/2 inches for orange; 8 by 9 inches for red.
  • Tightly wrap the blue dough around the purple log, keeping the dough in a log shape; pinch the seam to close. Continue wrapping the log with the dough: green, then yellow, orange and red. Wrap the whole log in plastic wrap; freeze until very firm, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Trim the ends of the dough log, then slice into 3/8-inch-thick rounds. Slice each round in half. Arrange about 1 inch apart on 2 unlined baking sheets and refrigerate until ready to bake, at least 15 minutes.
  • Bake, one pan at a time, until the cookies are just set around the edges and golden on the bottom, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on the pan, then transfer to racks to cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, put the candy melts in a medium microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until smooth, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag and snip a corner. Pipe small clouds on the ends of each rainbow. Let set, at least 5 minutes.

SLICE AND BAKE RAINBOW COOKIES RECIPE BY TASTY



Slice and Bake Rainbow Cookies Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, salt, eggs, flour, red food coloring, orange food coloring, yellow food coloring, green food coloring, blue food coloring, purple food coloring

Provided by Claire Nolan

Categories     Desserts

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup butter, softened
2 ½ cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 pinch salt
3 eggs
3 ½ cups flour
¼ teaspoon red food coloring
¼ teaspoon orange food coloring
¼ teaspoon yellow food coloring
¼ teaspoon green food coloring
¼ teaspoon blue food coloring
¼ teaspoon purple food coloring

Steps:

  • Using a hand mixer or standing mixer, beat butter until creamy.
  • Add powdered sugar and beat until combined. Add the eggs, vanilla, and salt. Beat until well combined.
  • Gradually, add the flour until dough is moist and holds together, but doesn't stick to your hands.
  • Place dough on a cutting board and form into a ball. Cut in half, then cover one half with plastic wrap and set aside.
  • Divide the other half into 6 pieces. The outer layers of the rainbow will need a little bit more dough, so make two of them slightly larger than the others.
  • Dye the dough with food coloring by placing a ¼ teaspoon of dye on the ball of dough and kneading it until it is one solid color. Gloves optional but suggested.
  • Starting with purple, roll the dough into a log about 6-8 inches (15-20 cm) long. This will be the center of the rainbow.
  • Next, roll out the blue dough with a rolling pin until it's about ¼ inch (6 mm) thick, slightly longer than the purple, and wide enough to wrap around the purple dough. Repeat with the green, yellow, orange, and red doughs. The further away from the purple you get, the wider the dough needs to be to go around the previous color, making the red dough the widest.
  • Wrap the blue dough around the purple, pinching together any cracks that form, cutting off any excess dough. Repeat with the rest of the colors.
  • Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
  • Once chilled, remove the plastic wrap, and cut the dough in half to make 2 rainbow shapes. Set aside.
  • Cut the reserved dough in half, roll out to ¼-inch (6 mm) thickness, and make it slightly longer than the rainbow log.
  • Place the rainbow dough in the center and wrap the plain dough around it, again, pinching together any cracks and smoothing out the surface.
  • Repeat with the other halves. Wrap with plastic wrap and chill for another 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
  • Once chilled, remove the plastic wrap. Slice cookies about ½-inch (1 cm) thick and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until the bottom has browned slightly.
  • Cool on a cooling rack.
  • Enjoy!
