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.
- Place green layer onto a piece of plastic wrap large enough to wrap all three layers. Spread green layer with raspberry jam, and top with uncolored layer. Spread with apricot jam, and top with pink layer. Transfer layers to a baking sheet, and enclose with plastic wrap. Place a heavy pan or cutting board on top of wrapped layers to compress. Chill in the refrigerator 8 hours, or overnight.
- Remove plastic wrap. Top with melted chocolate chips, and refrigerate 1 hour, or until chocolate is firm. Slice into small squares to serve.

HAZELNUT TRI-COLOR COOKIES
An homage to the rainbow cookie-and Italian-American classic-these triple-deckers owe their subtle hues to matcha powder and pulverized freeze-dried raspberries, and their unique flavor to ground hazelnuts.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread hazelnuts in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet; bake until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Let cool completely.
- Spray three 9 1/2‐by‐12 1/2‐inch rimmed baking sheets (also called quarter‐sheet pans) with cooking spray. Line with parchment; spray parchment.
- In a food processor, finely grind cooled hazelnuts. Add confectioners' sugar, 1 egg white, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Blend until mixture holds together. Transfer to a mixer bowl fitted with a TK attachment. Add 1 cup granulated sugar, and beat on medium speed until combined, about 2 minutes. Add butter and beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Add liqueur to mixer, then egg yolks, one at a time, beating to combine after each addition. Reduce speed to low; beat in flour and remaining 1 teaspoon salt until combined.
- In a clean bowl, beat remaining 5 egg whites in mixer fitted with the whisk attachment on medium speed until soft peaks form, gradually adding remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar. Continue beating until stiff peaks form, 3 to 4 minutes. Whisk into flour mixture in two additions. Divide mixture equally between three bowls (one can be the bowl you mixed in).
- Stir ground raspberries into one bowl, matcha into another, and leave third plain. Spread each batter evenly into a separate prepared pan. Bake, rotating pans once, until just set, dry on top, and just beginning to pull away from sides of pan, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely in pans on wire racks.
- Turn green cake out of its pan onto a parchment‐lined baking sheet or cutting board. Remove parchment. Spread half of jam evenly over cake, all the way to edges. Turn out white cake onto green cake; remove parchment. Spread remaining jam over white cake. Turn out pink cake onto white; remove parchment. Wrap in plastic and top with a small baking sheet or board and a few cans to weigh down. Refrigerate at least 4 hours and up to 12 hours.
- Place chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, or in a microwave. Just before all is melted, remove from heat; stir with a spatula until completely melted. Pour half of chocolate over cake and spread evenly with an offset spatula.
- Refrigerate until set, about 10 minutes. Flip over and repeat on second side with remaining chocolate. Refrigerate 10 minutes. Cut into 1 1/4‐inch squares. Refrigerate in a single layer in an airtight container up to 1 week, or store at room temperature up to 2 days.
TRICOLOR COOKIES
The Tricolor Cookie, or Rainbow Cookie, is a nearly ubiquitous part of the traditional American-Italian dessert platter, and it happens to be Renato's favorite snack. Our version of the cookie incorporates our bakery's colors (brown, white, and orange) instead of the red, white, and green used to evoke the Italian flag in the original cookie. We've also tweaked the amounts of marzipan and added some orange zest for a citrus zing. The layers are sandwiched together with an apricot-amaretto jam and topped off with a glossy dark chocolate glaze for a modern spin on an old-school classic.

TRI-COLOR BULLSEYE SPRITZ COOKIES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Combine the butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add and mix in 1 egg at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl between each addition. Add the vanilla and mix. Whisk together the flour and salt in a medium bowl and add to the butter mixture, beating until the flour is just incorporated.
- Separate the cookie dough into 3 bowls as follows: a small amount for the center of the bullseye then divide the rest equally for the other 2 rings. Add 2 to 3 drops of one of the food colors to the small bowl, stirring to distribute the color evenly. Repeat with a different food color for each of the remaining bowls of dough.
- Place each colored dough in separate piping bags, making sure to put the smallest amount of dough in the bag with the smallest tip. Starting with the outside of each bullseye, pipe 3-inch rings onto the baking sheet, about 2 inches apart. Use the next bag to pipe the second colored ring inside the first ring, then use the third bag to fill in the center of the bullseye. If the edges of the piped rings overlap, use a bit of water to moisten a finger and smooth out the uneven section.
- Freeze the bullseyes for 10 minutes before baking. Then bake until the cookies are set but not yet golden brown, about 11 minutes, rotating the pan 180 degrees at the halfway mark.
- Allow the cookies to cool on a wire rack before serving.

Steps:
- Position oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
- Beat the butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the almond and vanilla extracts and egg and mix until combined. Reduce the mixer speed to low, add the flour and salt and mix until just combined.
- Remove all but 1/4 cup of the dough to a flour-dusted surface and reserve. Add enough green gel food coloring to the dough left in the bowl to color it a vibrant green like a wreath, 3 to 4 drops. Mix on low until the dough is completely green. Remove the dough to a flour-dusted surface and gently fold until it comes together. Wipe the paddle and bowl of the stand mixer clean.
- Place 1/4 cup of the reserved white dough back into the bowl. Add enough red gel food coloring to color it a vibrant red like a fire truck, 3 to 4 drops. Mix on low until the dough is completely red. Remove the dough to a flour-dusted surface and gently fold until it comes together.
- Tear off 2 Ping-Pong ball-size pieces of the white dough and add to the barrel of a cookie press; add 1 marble-size piece of the green dough and 1 marble-size piece of the red dough. Repeat this pattern until the barrel is filled (you will not use all of the dough). Place a wreath disc onto the cookie press barrel according to the manufacturer's instructions. Press the cookies onto an ungreased baking sheet. Repeat 2 more times in the same pattern with the remaining dough.
- Bake 2 of the batches until the cookies are firm but not yet browning on the bottom, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool the cookies for 1 minute on the baking sheets, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes. Bake the third batch and let cool. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
ITALIAN TRI-COLOR COOKIES (RAINBOW COOKIES)
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.

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.
