I have always wanted to make these cookies. I was always a little trepidatious in doing so because there seemed to be a lot involved with making them. I was, of course, CORRECT! The process was long. To be exact, a little over 3 hours for the preparing and baking. Then they have to "set" overnight before they can be finished. I am not going to type out the recipe, but I will provide the link to the recipe I used, which was AMAZING! These cookies, all 96 of them, were devoured the night they were unveiled... and there was only 10 of us! Here is the link: http://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/2011/05/rainbow-cookies. Some tips... make sure you have a strainer, 3 13x9x2 metal baking pans (this will help the process go a little smoother... I only had two pans :(...DIVIDE the sugar, which is noted in the recipe under ingredients, but not so much in the preparation...make sure you have space in your freezer and refrigerator and heavy cans to compress cake layers.
Happy Baking!
