These Marble Matcha Strawberry Cookies are a delightful fusion treat that combines the earthy flavor of matcha with the sweet tang of strawberries. Perfect for tea time or as a colorful addition to any dessert spread.
Preheat and Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Create Marble Effect: Divide the dough in half. Mix powdered strawberries into one half and matcha powder into the other. Pinch off small amounts of each dough, press together, twist slightly to marble, and roll into balls.
Bake: Place on baking sheet, flatten slightly, and bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are golden.
Cool and Enjoy: Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For stronger color and flavor, add an extra 1/2 tablespoon of matcha or strawberry powder to each dough half.
