1. Preheat oven to 375°.
2. In a small bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in egg and vanilla.
3. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients. Separate dough into three sections. (Or more if you are using more than three colors.)
4. Dye each section the desired color - I used red, yellow, and blue. Mix your dough with the food coloring until the desired color.
5. Decide on the pattern of your colors, and start with the outer arch first. Roll a piece of dough into a "snake" shape, and place on parchment paper on a cookie sheet in an arch shape. Continue using your first color until it is gone or until your cookie sheet is full. Continue the pattern with your next color, and the next, and so on.
6. Once all of the rainbows have been constructed, gently press the colors together slightly so that they will stay together while they are baking.
7. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden on the edges. Remove to wire racks to cool.
