Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line three 9x13-inch baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes with an electric mixer on high speed.
- In another bowl, cream the butter, white sugar, and almond paste until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually mix in the powdered sugar, milk, egg yolks, and almond extract until well incorporated.
- Gently fold in the all-purpose flour and then the beaten egg whites until you have a uniform mixture.
- Divide the batter into three bowls. Color the first bowl with red food coloring, the second with green, and leave the third plain.
- Spread each colored batter into the prepared baking sheets and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, then allow to cool completely.
- Spread raspberry jam on the green layer, stack the plain layer on top, followed by the red layer.
- Refrigerate the layered cake for 4 hours with a heavy object on top to set.
- Trim edges of the cake to form a neat rectangle measuring 7 ½ by 10 ½ inches.
- Melt chocolate chips with vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl until smooth.
- Dip each side of the layered cake into the melted chocolate glaze and allow to set on parchment paper.
- Once set, cut the cake into 1 ½-inch squares and serve.
