But if you experiment and find a natural based food coloring that will hold its color after baking, leave a comment below! IвЂ™d love to find one. Most natural food coloring works best at room temperature, tinting frostings and icings. I have yet to find a natural red food coloring that holds its color when baked. Keep in mind that the red food coloring is an artificial red coloring. Look for in the same place you will find frosting or cake decorating, or near the flavor extracts and spices. I designed this cookie to use liquid food coloring, the kind you find at a typical grocery store. What sort of food coloring should you use?

Press together to form a cohesive disk, sprinkle some flaky salt on top and bake! Watch a video for how to form these cookies Alternate the strips to form a dough disk that has white and red strips. Once the dough is chilled, roll out balls of dough and flatten them into disks. Wrap the dough up and chill it in the fridge for at least 2 hours or preferably overnight. Then mix in white or semi-sweet chocolate chips (your preference) to the red dough and mint chip or semi-sweet chocolate chips (again your preference) to the white dough.

Add the flour and mix until a dough forms.Дivide the dough in half, adding red food coloring to one half of the dough. Here I make just two different colored doughs, cut them into strips, and then form the cookie.ДЇirst make the cookie dough by creaming together butter, white sugar, brown sugar, vanilla and peppermint extract, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.

I have a recipe in my cookbook Marbled, Swirled, and Layered (<- affiliate link) that creates a criss-cross style cookie and I adapted it to make my rainbow chocolate chip cookie. This cookie looks fairly fancy pants, because I used two different doughs to make the stripes. And though they look complicated, I have step-by-step instructions and even a video to show you how to make them! How do you make this cookie? TheyвЂ™re fun and whimsical, with me playing and combining different colored cookie doughs like in my rainbow chocolate chip cookies. So before I knew it, I was sketching and brainstorming these striped chewy peppermint chocolate chip cookies. And though I adore the combo of chocolate and mint, like in my peppermint Texas sheet cake and in my mint chocolate chip cookies (that are designed to taste like mint chocolate chip ice cream) I knew I wanted to yet another riff on this flavor combo. Which made think, why should I mess with a much beloved cookie recipe? Even if itвЂ™s much beloved byвЂ¦one person. But honestly, my friend Steven made it recently and had texted me to tell me he loved it immensely. IвЂ™ve been tinkering with this idea of revisiting and revising my old white chocolate peppermint cookie with sea salt that uses leftover crushed candy canes for awhile. These fun and whimsical striped chewy peppermint chocolate chip cookies are easier to make than they look with my step-by-step instructions!
