Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).

    • In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until light and fluffy.
    • Add in the softened butter, almond extract, and flour. Mix until well combined.
    • Stir in the sugar and baking powder until the batter is smooth.

    • In one bowl, add the red food coloring and mix until the batter turns red.
    • In the second bowl, add the yellow food coloring and mix until the batter turns yellow.
    • In the third bowl, add the green food coloring and mix until the batter turns green.
  5. Prepare Pan:

    • Spray a 12×18 inch (30×45 cm) baking pan with non-stick cooking spray, ensuring to coat both the bottom and sides.
  6. Layering:

    • Spread the red batter evenly in the prepared pan. Bake for about 10 minutes, or until set.
    • Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
    • Place a sheet of parchment paper on top of the baked red layer.
    • Carefully flip the pan onto a hard surface to release the red layer. Remove the parchment paper.
    • Spread half of the preserves evenly over the red layer.
  7. Repeat with Yellow Batter:

    • Bake for another 10 minutes until set.
  9. Chocolate Topping:

    • In a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate until smooth.
    • Spread a generous layer of melted chocolate evenly over the top green layer.
  10. Chill and Decorate:

    • Place the pan in the refrigerator to allow the chocolate to set for about 15-20 minutes.
    • Once the chocolate has hardened, remove the pan from the fridge.
    • Carefully flip the pan onto a hard surface to release the layered cookie.
    • Spread the remaining melted chocolate over the top and sides of the cookie.
    • Sprinkle the top with your favorite festive sprinkles for an extra touch!
  11. Chill and Serve:
