Recipe: Rainbow Cookies
These cookies taste like rainbows! Okay, they taste like vanilla cookie cutouts, but they look like rainbows! :D
Rainbow Cookies:
3 cups (375g) flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 cup (250g) butter
1 cup (200g) sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract or 1 tbsp vanilla sugar
rainbow food coloring
Cream butter. Cream in sugar, egg and vanilla.
Add dry ingredients. Knead briefly to bring dough together.
Separate dough into six bowls, with there being more dough in each succeeding bowl. I did this by using a teaspoon and putting one spoonful in the first bowl, two in the second, etc. until you put 6 in the sixth bowl. Do this twice and split the rest of the dough evenly.
Color the bowl with the least amount of dough purple, the second blue, the third green, the fourth yellow, the fifth orange and the largest red.
Take the purple dough and roll it into a fairly thin snake.
Place it on a plate or platter and place it in the freezer for 10 minutes.
Remove frozen dough from freezer. Roll out the blue dough in a rectangle that will surround the frozen snake of purple dough.
Wrap the dough around the frozen purple dough. Roll it briefly until it is smooth. Freeze the now blue fatter snake for 10 minutes.
Do the same thing, wrapping the frozen dough in green.
Then yellow.
Then orange.
Then red. Finally, freeze the fat log of rainbow colors for about an hour.
Remove from freezer and cut with a sharp knife into discs about 1/4 inch thick.
Cut the discs in half to form the rainbows and place them on a lined cookie sheet.
Bake at 300°F or 150°C for 8-10 minutes or until the cookies no longer look wet. They should not start browning.
