My sister shared the recipe for these tricolor treats several years ago. The crisp cookies are fun to eat one section at a time or with all three in one bite. -Jan Mallo, White Pigeon, Michigan

These cookies are a little too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of almond extract, but I really liked these cookies. The almond flavor is subtle and it doesn't overpower the other flavors.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover egg whites. I always have a few egg whites left over after making macarons, and these cookies are the perfect way to use them up.
