Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter three 13x9-inch pans generously and line with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together the almond paste and granulated sugar until crumbly. Add unsalted butter and blend until smooth. Incorporate the egg yolks.
- In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into the almond mixture in thirds.
- Divide the batter, leaving one-third plain and tinting two-thirds with red gel food coloring.
- Pour the red batter into two pans and the white batter into the third. Bake for 10-12 minutes until firm.
- Once cooled, spread raspberry jam on one red layer, top with white layer, and then another layer of jam before adding the final red layer.
- Wrap the layered cookie stack tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
- Invert the chilled stack onto a cutting board, remove parchment, and melt the white chocolate chips to pour over the top. Let set before cutting into squares.
