I've been looking for a good recipe for Tricolor Cookies (also called Rainbow Cookies) for a long time. The Washington Post had one in their food section this week! Here it is:

I made a batch, and I'm going to make more. They're unbelievably good. They remind me of the cookies I used to get at Alfonso's Pastry on Staten Island, New York, when I was a kid!
They're still there:

These cookies are hard to find outside of the New York City area.
My kitchen smelled like Alfonso's shop while I was baking. It was the mixture of marzipan and orange zest that did it.
Found this recipe for Cherry Shortbread in Rachael Ray's Everyday Magazine, December 2008:

Least likely to screw up! It is hard to ruin shortbread. The cherries are a nice addition. Next time, I might drizzle chocolate on them.
