Steps:
- Line the bottom of a loaf pan with waxed paper.
- With an electric mixer combine flour, sugar, butter, egg, baking powder, vanilla, and salt; beat for 3 minutes.
- Divide the cookie dough into 3 equal parts.
- Part 1: mix in the almond or hazelnut extract and 5 drops red food coloring (this is the pink/red dough).
- Part 2: mix in the chopped walnuts or pistachios (this is the white dough).
- Part 3: mix in the cocoa (this is the brown dough).
- Preheat the oven to 350°.
- In the loaf pan, spread each part of the dough one on top of the other, pink, white, and chocolate; cover the pan and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
- After chilling, turn out the dough from the pan and cut loaf lengthwise in half, then crosswise, then cut pieces of dough to make about 15 cookies from each piece.
- Bake each batch for 8-10 minutes.
- Makes about 60 cookies.
