List of Ingredients




4 cups of sifted flour
4 cups of sugar
4 sticks of butter
8 eggs
1 small bottle of PURE Almond Extract (can use imitation, but it doesn't taste as good)
Small jar of Raspberry Jelly
Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Food Coloring (Red & Green)
Confectioner's Sugar
3 tin pans (throw away)
Pam Spray or Margarine (to coat pan)
2 tbsp. Oil



Recipe



Mixture:
Melt the butter in a saucepan. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, butter, eggs and extract. Mix until all bubbles are gone.

Evenly separate the batter in to 3 bowls. Add approx. 10 drops of red food coloring to one bowl, and 10 drops of green food

coloring to another bowl. Do not add coloring to the 3rd bowl (unless you want to). Mix batter thoroughly again, and spray each

aluminum pan with pam or margarine. Pour one bowl of each mixture in to one pan. Use a utensil to level the batter evenly.

Cook on 350 degrees for approximately 1/2 hour. However, check the oven to make sure that the edges are not burning. Once the mixture is done. Take out and let cool.

Formation:
Once it's cool, take a cutting board or cookie sheet. Use this as a base (as this needs to be refrigerated, and it's heavy). Put un-colored layer either on top or bottom. Spoon out jelly on to bottom layer, add additional layer, repeat. Once three layers are together, melt (in a small pan) approx. 1 cup of chocolate chips, with 2 tbsp. of oil. Stir this frequently and once melted, spoon out on to top layer of " cake ". Put this in refrigerator over night, and let it harden. Once hard, it can now be cut in to cookies. Cut the cookies using the smaller side of the cake. Using a large knife, cut approx. 1" thick, and try to make cookies even. You

can now arrange them in a tin, or in a plastic platter. Once the first layer is together, sprinkle with confectioner's sugar. And repeat. .

Note:
Any color of food coloring can be used. I use Red and Blue for 4th of July. Orange and Yellow for Autumn, etc...
