Every Christmas my mom and I make Venetian Cookies, aka Rainbow Cookies, aka (in my house) 3-Color-Cookies. We probably started calling them that 

because when we started making them I couldn’t pronounce Venetian or Rainbow – we’ve been making them that long. And let me tell you: They. Are. Delicious. They are also full of butter and sugar and nothing with nutritional value. But hey, everything in moderation, right?

But, these little beauties!?
