Step-by-Step Instructions for Strawberry Matcha Neapolitan Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and prepare two baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until even.
  3. Cream the butter and sugar in a large mixer bowl until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add the egg and vanilla to the mixture and mix on medium speed until incorporated.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  6. Divide the dough into three portions using a spatula.
  7. Mix freeze-dried strawberries into one portion and matcha into another. Leave the third portion plain.
  8. Roll one tablespoon of each flavored dough into a ball and coat in granulated sugar.
  9. Place on baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden.
  10. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
