I saw these little shortbread circulate on the web some time ago. I really liked the principle of rolled biscuit leopard and try to reproduce the same visual effect on small shortbread I liked.
I took my recipe for shortbread bicolor and I adapted to have three colors.
It m ' took two attempts to get the desired result. The first time I had not set colors in the same order and my biscuits were very big.
Finally groping a bit I found the right one and I will propose today.

Shaping :
Shaping 6 for socks with dark paste. Re server.Avec light brown paste shape 6 sausages and flatten them (if they are not well straight it does not matter) I use plastic wrap and I put my dough between two sheets of film to flatten the roll without the dough from sticking to the latter. Ask dark strands in the bands of light brown paste and wrap the whole (warning light brown dough should not completely cover the dark dough to the final visual effect see photo # 8 below)
With the dough confectionery also form large rectangles and wrap each white rectangle around each previous roll (dark + light brown) put six rolls ended each other to form a round nickname. If you still have the light brown paste wrap the dough around the roller. Then pack everything in plastic wrap. Squeeze a little so that the pieces are welded together well by rolling gently.
Allow to cool for 1/2 to 1 hour.
When the dough a little hard but not too take the roll and give it a nice round in the rolling gently in his hands.
If he put the softened too cool otherwise cut slices of a few mm thick and arrange on a baking sheet covered with baking paper.
bake for 10-12 minutes in a 180 ° preheated oven.
