Instructions
- Add the butter, brown sugar, and sugar to a stand mixer on medium-high speed and cream until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a large bowl sift together the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
- Add the flour mixture to your stand mixer on low speed in small batches until just combined.
- Separate the dough into three equal pieces.
- Add food coloring to two of the bowls and mix until smooth and evenly colored.
- Wrap the dough pieces in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
- Cut each piece of dough into two even pieces.
- Roll the six balls of dough into 10×6-inch rectangles.
- Layer the white dough rectangles on top of the blue dough rectangles, and then the red dough rectangles on top of the white dough rectangles so that all 3 are stacked.
- Roll the dough into two logs (roll so the cookie log is long and skinny, rolling up from the widest side), wrap tightly with saran wrap and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Slice the cookies 1/4-inch thick and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, but do not let them brown.
