Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat 3 quarter-sheet pans (or three 13-by-9-by-2-inch jelly roll pans) with cooking spray. Line each pan with parchment paper and coat the paper with cooking spray as well.
- Place the almond paste in the bowl of a stand mixer. Break it up into small pieces with a fork. Fit the mixer with the paddle attachment and add the butter and sugar to the bowl. Beat the mixture on high speed until light and fluffy, about 7 minutes. Reduce the speed to medium, add the egg yolks, and beat until incorporated. Turn the mixer off and stir in the flour with a wooden spoon until well combined. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl.
- Clean the mixer bowl thoroughly and fit the mixer with the whisk attachment. Beat the egg whites on high speed until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg whites into the batter until thoroughly blended.
- Transfer 1 1/2 cups of the batter to a medium bowl, then transfer another 1 1/2 cups of the batter to a second medium bowl. Add the red food coloring to one of the bowls and stir until the batter is tinted throughout. Add the green food coloring to the second bowl and stir until the batter is tinted throughout. Scrape each of the three batters into one of the prepared pans, using the spatula to spread the batter to the edges. Bake, rotating and switching the positions of the pans halfway through, until the edges are golden, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool in the pans for about 5 minutes, then invert onto cooling racks and allow to cool completely.
- To assemble, place the green layer on a large cutting board or a large inverted baking sheet lined with wax paper. Spread the raspberry jam evenly over the top. Place the yellow layer on top and spread with the apricot preserves. If there are large chunks of apricots, remove and chop them up to make them more spreadable. Top with the red layer. Cover with plastic wrap and place a heavy cutting board on top to weight it down. Refrigerate overnight.
- Place the chocolate chips in a microwaveable bowl and melt in the microwave on low power about 2 minutes. Spread the chocolate on top of the cooled cake and let dry slightly. Trim the rim of the cake with a serrated knife to make clean edges. Cut the cake crosswise into twelve 1-inch-wide strips, then cut lengthwise into 1 1/4-inch strips. The cookies will keep, covered, up to 1 week.

My sister shared the recipe for these tricolor treats several years ago. The crisp cookies are fun to eat one section at a time or with all three in one bite. -Jan Mallo, White Pigeon, Michigan

AUNT SUE'S HOLIDAY CHOCOLATE PECAN NEAPOLITAN COOKIES
These are very yummy and pretty for the holidays. They are fun to make, but the dough needs some time in the freezer. Also, I found that the chocolate takes quite a while to "set." I ended up placing the cookies on the wire cooling racks and setting them outside on the front steps for about 10 minutes. That did the trick. The refrigerator probably would too, but I didn't have enough room!

Yield Makes 18 to 20 cookies (9 to 10 sandwiches)

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Spread pecan halves on a parchment lined baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until roasty and fragrant. Remove from the oven and cool. Transfer the pecans to a cutting board and give them a rough chop. Allow chopped pecans to cool completely.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the butter, half of the sugar (1/4 cup), and vanilla until pale and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula and add the flour, cocoa powder and salt mixture. Mix on low until all of the dry ingredients are incorporated. Add the pecans and the sprinkles and mix until just combined.
- Line a work surface with a large piece of parchment paper. Scrape the dough out onto the parchment paper and gather it together with your hands. Roll into a 6 1/2-inch-long log that is about 2 inches wide. Tightly wrap the dough in parchment paper, twisting the ends so it's airtight. Refrigerate until the dough is firm, for 2 hours or overnight.
- Set an oven rack in the middle position. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Spread the remaining granulated sugar on a plate and roll the log in the sugar to coat completely.
- Slice the log into eighteen 1/4-inch discs and place them on the baking sheet evenly spaced apart. Bake in the center of the oven until the cookies are no longer shiny and slightly puffed; begin checking for doneness at 16 minutes. Let cool on the pans.
- Using a 1/2-ounce scoop or a spoon, dollop about 1 tablespoon of the filling on the bottom of 12 of the cooled cookies. Sandwich with another half and smush lightly. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container on the counter until you eat them all.
- Cream together butter and caramel until smooth. Add powdered sugar and salt and whip until combined and light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes.

REAL NEAPOLITAN COOKIES
These are the kind of cookies you'd spend a fortune on in an Italian bakery. They are made with almond filling, not almond extract. Very rich, cake-like cookie with chocolate topping. This recipe came from my mom. Store in the refrigerator.

HOLIDAY PECAN PIE COOKIES
I won a holiday cookie contest 20 years ago with this recipe given to me by a good friend. It has been a family favorite and a regular in our Christmas cookie line-up. The dough has a soft texture and is not too sweet.

NEAPOLITAN COOKIES
I have made these cookies every Christmas since 1977, which qualifies them as a Family Tradition. They require two separate doughs, but it's well worth the effort. The yield is very large -- 70 cookies -- I usually bake half and leave the other half in the freezer until Christmas Eve. They also taste best if they've been left to age a day or two. This recipe requires one large loaf pan, two small loaf pans, or a square (8x8) cake pan with straight sides. I prefer the square pan. Whatever you use, you need to line the pans with aluminum foil or waxpaper so that you can lift the dough out after it freezes.

Steps:
- This dough chills overnight. On the day you're ready to bake, preheat oven to 400.
- For the dark dough: sift together flour, salt, baking soda, cloves, and cinnamon and set aside.
- Grind or cut chocolate until it is fine (otherwise it will be hard to slice the dough). Set aside.
- In the large bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter, add the coffee and brown sugar and beat well.
- Add the eggs and beat to mix. Beat in the ground chocolate.
- On low speed gradually add the sifted dry ingredients, scraping the bowl regularly. Don't overblend! Then stir in the nuts. Set the dough aside (not in the fridge) and make the light dough.
- Light dough: Sift together flour, salt, baking soda. Set aside.
- In a large clean bowl of the electric mixer with clean beaters, cream the butter. Add the vanilla, the sugar, water and beat well. Add the egg, beat to mix. On low speed gradually add the shifted dry ingredients. Don't overmix.
- Mix in the currents, lemon rind and cherries.
- Layer dough in the pans: one half the dark dough (carefully pack down and smooth), all the light dough (do the same), then the rest of the dark dough. Press down to make a compact loaf.
- Chill overnight (or for about twelve hours) in the freezer.
- To bake: preheat to 400. You'll need unbuttered cookie sheets, lined with foil if possible.
- Turn the pan over so that the cake of dough slides out, and peel off the foil or waxpaper. With a long and heavy knife, cut the cake in half the long way (if you used loaf pans); if you used a square 8x8 pan, cut it in three equal strips. Work with one piece at a time (wrap and freeze the others). Now slice the long piece you've got into individual cookies, about 1/3 of an inch thick. Place them 1 1/2 inches apart on the cookie sheets -- they will spread!
- Bake 10 minutes, watching carefully. The white dough should be lightly browned, but the dark dough will burn if you're not careful. If they come out of the oven seeming slightly underdone, that's good. They'll be chewy instead of brittle.
