Recipe

A A A

• 3 sheets wax paper
• 1 (8 oz) jar raspberry preserves
• 6 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups butter ( do not use margarine)
• 4 1/2 tsp almond extract
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 6 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 10 drops red food coloring
• 10 drops green food coloring
• 1 1/2 cups sugar

• 1 Beat eggs, add melted butter, almond extract, sugar, and flour. (Let the melted butter cool a bit before adding it to the beaten eggs).
• 2 In 3 bowls, evenly divide batter. Leave 1 bowl white, 1 bowl red, and 1 bowl green.
• 3 Place each batter in a very shallow pan-seperately.(I use aluminum pans from Waldbaums. They are the size of a loaf, but not as deep. They come in a package of 3-which is what you need). Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes- approximately.
• 4 Put red layer on top of wax paper. Spread raspberry preserves on layer. Take white layer, place on top of the red layer and spread preserves. Take the green layer, place it on the white. Spread the melted chocolate chips on the top.
• 5 Place in the freezer, just long enough for the chocolate to harden. When hardend, take out and do the same on the other side.
• 6 Take out carefully and slice into bars. Whole pieces can be frozen and sliced when needed.
• 7 ****NOTES****.
• 8 While the 1st side of the bar is hardening, you can start the whole process over because you will have enough batter and melted chips for a 2nd bar of cookies. ALSO Add some oil to melting chocolate chips to keep it from clumping together (if needed).
