Steps:
- You'll need three 9-by-12-inch jelly roll pans or rimmed baking sheets to make these layered cookies.
- Prep the pans: Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour three 9-by-12-inch jelly roll pans or rimmed baking sheets and line with parchment paper.
- Make the batter: Combine the almond paste and 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed until the mixture is in fine crumbles. Beat in 2 1/2 sticks butter, a few pieces at a time, until well combined. Beat in the egg yolks, one at a time, until smooth.
- Sift 2 cups flour onto a sheet of parchment and sprinkle the salt on top; add to the mixer bowl and beat until just combined.
- In a clean bowl, whisk the egg whites until foamy; while whisking, slowly add the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and whisk until firm peaks form (or use a hand mixer). Fold about one-third of the egg white mixture into the batter with a rubber spatula, then gently fold in the rest. The batter should be fluffy.
- Color the batter: Divide the batter evenly among 3 bowls. Stir enough red food coloring into 1 bowl to make a deep salmon color. Stir enough green food coloring into another bowl to make a medium green color. Leave the third bowl uncolored.
- Bake the layers: Transfer the batter to the prepared pans (one pan for each color). Dip an offset spatula in water and spread the batter to the edge of each pan, smoothing the tops. Bake, switching the position of the pans halfway through, until the cakes are cooked through and just beginning to brown around the edges, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool completely in the pans on wire racks.
- Assemble the layers: Spread half of the jam evenly over the green cake layer almost all the way to the edges. Unmold the plain cake layer by inverting it onto another pan or cutting board; peel off the parchment.
- Carefully slide the plain layer onto the green layer (use a wide offset spatula to help you, if necessary). Spread the remaining jam on top of the plain layer. Unmold the red cake layer and slide it onto the plain layer.
- Cover the cake with plastic wrap and top with one of the empty pans; place several heavy cans on top to weigh down the layers. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Unmold the cake: Remove the cans and plastic wrap. Place a cutting board on top of the cake and flip to unmold it onto the cutting board. Remove the parchment from the top of the green layer.
- Trim the cake: Trim the sides with a knife to make straight edges. Spray a wire rack with cooking spray; set the rack over a baking sheet. Carefully slide the cake onto the rack, using a wide offset spatula to help you, if necessary.
- Cover in chocolate: Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water; pour over the cake. Dip an offset spatula in the hot water and smooth the top and sides. Let set slightly. Scrape wavy lines into the chocolate with a fork; let cool a few more minutes until the chocolate is mostly set but still slightly tacky.
- Cut into pieces: Slide the cake back onto the cutting board. Slice crosswise into 6 strips, then cut each strip into 8 rectangular pieces. For clean edges, dip the knife in warm water and wipe it with a cloth between cuts. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
- If the lines in the chocolate don't hold their shape, let the chocolate set a little longer and try again.

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!

Steps:
- Sift together the flour and baking powder into a small bowl and set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar together for 1 minute. Add egg and vanilla. Add half of dry ingredients, stir completely, then add second half.
- Separate dough into 5 equal portions, with an indentation or small "bowl" in the middle of each ball of dough.
- Add 1-2 drops of gel food coloring to each ball of dough, in the middle of the indentation you created. Only use one color of gel per dough mound: red, yellow, green, blue, and purple.
- Knead each ball of dough separately, working in the food coloring until you have five brightly colored balls of dough.
- Roll purple dough out into a 1 inch thick log, about 6" long. Set aside.
- Roll out the blue dough so that it is the same length as the purple log of dough, but flatten the blue dough so that it is only about 1/4" thick. Place the purple dough log in the middle of the blue dough, rolling up the sides of the blue sheet of dough so that it surrounds the purple dough to form one larger log.
- Repeat what you just did with the blue dough with each additional color, until you have one log of dough. Make sure that all of the colors are firmly pressed together with no gaps.
- Wrap in plastic and refrigerate 1 hour to overnight.
- When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Line two cookie trays with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside.
- Remove cookie dough log from fridge and slice into 1/2 inch cookies - then slice again through the middle.
- Place onto prepared baking sheet 1 inch apart.
- Bake 8-10 minutes, the cookies will appear matte in appearance (not shiny). Allow to cool before frosting.
- Use a plastic piping bag to draw "clouds" on each end of your rainbow cookies with white icing. Allow to set completely before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line three 9x13 inch baking pans with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, break apart almond paste with a fork, and cream together with butter, sugar, and egg yolks. When mixture is fluffy and smooth, stir in flour to form a dough. In a small bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Fold egg whites into the dough. Divide dough into 3 equal portions. Mix one portion with red food coloring, and one with green food coloring. Spread each portion into one of the prepared baking pans.
- Bake 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, until lightly browned. Carefully remove from pan and parchment paper, and cool completely on wire racks.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add egg yolks and vanilla, one at a time. Combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a small bowl. Once the dry ingredients are well mixed, gradually add to the creamed mixture.
- Divide the dough into 3 equal portions; tint each a different color. Roll each portion of dough between 2 sheets of waxed paper into a 9 inch by 5 inch rectangle. Freeze for 10 minutes.
- Cut each rectangle in half lengthwise. Lightly brush to top of one rectangle with egg white. Top with another colored dough. Repeat with remaining 4 dough portions so you have six alternating layers of colored dough. Press together lightly. Cut in half lengthwise again. Wrap each with plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Unwrap the dough and cut into 1/8 inch slices. Place 2 inches apart ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Cool for 1-2 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
