Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together unsalted butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Add eggs and milk, mixing just until combined. Gradually stir in flour, salt, vanilla extract, and almond extract to form a soft dough.
- Divide the dough into three equal portions. Leave one portion plain, color one with purple gel food coloring, and the last with black, ensuring the colors are well-mixed.
- On a floured surface, roll out the black and white dough into two rectangles. Lay the white rectangle on top of the black one, gently pressing down.
- Roll out the purple dough into a rectangle, sprinkle with purple sprinkles, and roll into a log. Set it aside.
- Place the purple log at one end of the black-and-white layers and roll tightly around it, sealing the edges well.
- Sprinkle black or chocolate sprinkles on a clean surface and roll the cookie log in them. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. After chilling, slice the cookie log into ¼-inch rounds and place on lined baking sheets.
- Bake the cookies for 10 minutes or until edges are golden. Allow cooling on the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes
Use gel food coloring for vibrant colors. Sharp knives are essential for perfect slices. Store cookies in an airtight container.
