SEVEN LAYER COOKIES

The colors may have been meant to represent the Italian flag, but their palette is just right for Christmastime. To make sure they're vibrant, purchase gel food colorings from a kitchen or craft store -- the liquid drops from the supermarket won't be able to produce the deep red and green this cookie requires.

Time 3h15m

Yield 4 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 sticks (1 pound) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 pound (two 8-ounce cans) almond paste
8 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Red and green gel food coloring
1/3 cup raspberry jam
1/3 cup apricot jam
1 cup chocolate chips
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 tablespoon canola oil or shortening

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line three 13-by-9-inch baking pans with either parchment paper or greased aluminum foil.
  • In a food processor, pulse together the butter, confectioners' sugar and almond paste until pale yellow and fluffy. Continue to pulse while adding the eggs one at a time, then the vanilla extract. Add the flour and process until a smooth dough forms, stopping occasionally to scrape the sides and corners of the bowl.
  • Remove the dough and divide into 3 even pieces. Place one piece back into the processor with a dab of red gel food coloring, and pulse until combined. Repeat with another piece and a dab of green food coloring.
  • Spread the red, green and plain doughs in the prepared baking pans, and bake until light and springy to the touch, about 15 minutes. Allow to cool completely in their pans, about 1 hour.
  • Remove the cookie layers from their pans, reserving 1 pan to use as a mold. Place the apricot and raspberry jams in separate bowls or mugs and microwave until loose, about 1 minute. In another bowl, toss the chocolate chips with the corn syrup and oil and microwave in 30-second spurts, stirring with a fork in between, until a shiny glaze is formed.
  • Place the green layer in the pan, then spread a thin layer of raspberry jam over it. Next, add the white layer, then repeat the process with the apricot jam. Top with the red layer, then spread the chocolate glaze across the top. Place in the refrigerator until the chocolate hardens, then wrap in plastic and allow to set for another hour, refrigerated.
  • Place a cutting board on top of the pan, invert it, and unmold the cookies. Using a sharp knife, cut the cookies lengthwise into 4 long pieces, then cut across in 1/2-inch intervals. These keep, well-wrapped at room temperature, 5 days.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your cookies. Use real butter, not margarine, and use good-quality chocolate chips.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies to spread less and keep their shape.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature. The cookies should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes. If you bake them at a higher temperature, they will brown too quickly and may burn.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.

Conclusion:

Seven-layer cookies are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little planning and effort, you can make a batch of seven-layer cookies that everyone will love.
