Tips
- The strawberry dough is the softest, so it should be chilled first and uncovered.
- Optional: use strawberry Nesquik, strawberry Jell-O powder, or ground freeze-dried strawberries instead of strawberry powder for the strawberry dough.
- It is super important to not leave out the strawberry extract.
- Optional: use chocolate extract instead of vanilla extract in the chocolate dough for a higher quality chocolate flavor.
- If making smaller cookies, you can easily double the yield.
- You can make Neapolitan ice cream sandwiches out of the smaller cookies.
- Bake immediately after combining the doughs so they do not melt too much into each other in the oven.
