Strawberry Matcha Marble Cookies 

Strawberry Matcha Marble Cookies from Emma’s Cake Studio are a vibrant and flavorful treat, combining three dough sections—classic vanilla, matcha, and strawberry—swirled into tender, cakey cookies with beautiful green, pink, and ivory hues. The butter-rich dough is soft yet structured, offering a mildly floral bitter matcha note, fruity sweetness, and vanilla base in each bite. These eye-catching cookies are perfect for festive cookie trays, gifts, or simply brightening your snack time. They’re surprisingly easy to assemble and bake in under 40 minutes.

Ingredients

• 2 ¾ cups (≈ 345 g) all-purpose flour
  
  

• 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
  
  

• ½ tsp baking powder
  
  

• ½ tsp baking soda
  
  

• ¼ tsp salt
  
  

• 1 cup (227 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
  
  

• 2 large eggs
  
  

• 1 tsp vanilla extract
  
  

• 1 Tbsp matcha powder (culinary grade)
  
  

• 1 Tbsp freeze-dried strawberry powder (see notes)
  
  

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
   
   

2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
   
   

3. In a mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time and then vanilla. Mix until smooth.
   
   

4. Add dry ingredients and stir on low until combined into a soft dough.
   
   

5. Divide dough into three equal portions. Leave one plain, stir matcha powder into the second, and fold strawberry powder into the third.
   
   

6. To form a cookie: take a small amount of each dough (~1 Tbsp each), marble by gently pressing together—not fully mixing—into a ball (~50 g total). Roll in granulated sugar if desired.
   
   

7. Space the balls ~2 inches apart on baking sheets. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are set but centers still soft.
   
   

8. Let cookies rest 2–3 minutes on the sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
