- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ¾ cups (345g) all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon matcha powder
- 1 tablespoon freeze-dried strawberry powder or ½ teaspoon strawberry extract plus a drop of pink food gel

Instructions
- Cream together softened butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time and mix well. Stir in vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt before gradually combining with the butter mixture to form a soft dough.
- Divide dough into three portions. Color one portion with strawberry powder or extract, another with matcha powder, and leave one plain.
