Great Recipe from a Friend of mine Adrienne, Rainbow Cookies!

Rainbow cookies

grease and flour 3 pans 11 1/4 x 7 1/2 x 1 1/2 deep
Preheat oven to 375 degrees
Ingredients
4 XL eggs-Room temp1 CupSugar 1 Cup Flour
1 Tsp Almond extract2 Sticks unsalted Butter
1 Jar strawberry or rasberry preserves
For the chocolate coating6 ounce package of semi sweet morsel
1 tbs. oil
Directions
Beat eggs,add sugar, and then add butter(melted) and almond extract. It makes a loose batter.
Seperate into three even parts. Add green food coloring to one, red to another and leave the third one plain.
Pour into the 3 pans and bake at 375 for 10 minutes. keep an eye on these. They cook quick. The edges should be slightly toasted.
Once cool, remove from the pan onto a waxed paper one at a time. Add preserves to first layer. Add next layer and add preserves. Cover the preserves with the third.
Let sit for 1/2 hour.
Melt chocolate with oil. Use a spreader to apply chocolate to coat the top and sides. Let sit or put in the refrigorator to harden chocolate. Cut into rows when you are ready to serve and then into small blocks. Dont cut entire cake unless you are serving right away. The cookies stay fresher when you cut when serving.
