Description
Delightful Strawberry Matcha Marble Cookies that combine the flavors of matcha and strawberries in a beautiful marbled design.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons matcha powder
- 1 cup freeze-dried strawberries, crushed
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Divide the dough in half. In one half, gently fold in the matcha powder until fully incorporated. In the other half, fold in the crushed freeze-dried strawberries.
- Using a tablespoon, scoop out small portions of each dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet, alternating between the matcha and strawberry dough to create a marbled effect.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a chewier texture, chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before baking.
- You can substitute the freeze-dried strawberries with other freeze-dried fruits like raspberries or blueberries for a different flavor profile.
