INGREDIENTS:
-2.2 lbs all purpose flour
-2 1/4 cups unsalted butter
-2 1/2 cups vegetable shortening
-2 1/4 cups granulated sugar
-3 eggs
-2 tbsp baking powder
-1 tbsp vanilla flavor
PROCEDURE:
-Mix together unsalted butter and vegetable shortening until ingredients are well combined and creamy. Mix on medium speed
-Add in your granulated sugar slowly. Mix for a few minutes or until you see it getting fluffy. Now it's time to add in your eggs one by one. Mix on medium until eggs are fully incorporated.
-Now put mixer on low speed and add in your all purpose flour, baking powder slowly. Lastly add your vanilla flavoring. Mix for a few minutes so all your ingredients are combined together.
-Place cookie dough on the table and knead. Make an even triangle, cut dough into 3 even pieces. Make sure they are approximately the same size more or less.
-Now in a small container mix royal blue and canary yellow gel colors together to make a vibrant green. Place gel color on 1 piece of your cookie dough and start to knead it until all dough is colored green. Set aside. Get the other piece of dough and color that one with strawberry red and knead it as well.
-Now that you have dough colored roll it. Take your 3 separate dough pieces and roll all 3 pieces out in a cylinder form.
-Place the red and green dough in next to each other. Add egg wash to the side of dough and place the right next to each other so they can stick together. Add more egg wash to the top of those and place the white dough on top of both colors.
-Start to shape dough with your hands making a triangle shape. Roll your dough over to get a better shape. Take a scraper and flatten the side with it to get a better shape.
-When you have your shape, it's time to cut our cookies. Cut cookies about a 1/2 an inch thick. Place cookies on baking sheet with pan liner on the bottom. Make sure to leave some space in between your cookies because they grow a little bit when they bake.
-Bake at 350 degrees for 18-20 minutes.
