Yield 60

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
2 1/2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
8 drops red food color
8 drops yellow food color
2 oz. semisweet chocolate, melted, cooled

Steps:

  • Line 8x4-inch loaf pan with waxed paper, extending paper up over sides of pan. In large bowl, combine sugar and butter; beat until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and egg; blend well. Add flour and baking powder; mix well.
  • Place 1 cup of dough in medium bowl. Add orange peel and both food colors; stir to mix slightly. On work surface, knead dough until color is uniform. Shape dough into 7x3 1/2-inch rectangle; place in waxed paper-lined pan. Press in gently.
  • Press half of remaining dough into 7x3 1/2-inch rectangle; place over orange dough in pan. Press gently to edge of pan. Stir chocolate into remaining dough; knead on work surface until color is uniform. Shape dough into 7x3 1/2-inch rectangle; place over vanilla dough in pan. Press gently to edge of pan. Cover with waxed paper; refrigerate 3 hours or until firm.
  • Heat oven to 375°F. Using waxed paper lining, lift dough from pan. Cut dough lengthwise in half. Cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
  • Bake at 375°F. for 7 to 10 minutes or until cookies are set and edges are very light golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets.
