Neapolitan Cookies

I used this recipe to make strawberry lemon cookies (or strawberry lemonade cookies). I skimped slightly on the sugar - using only 300 grams. In the strawberry portion of the dough I used 16 grams pulverized dried strawberry (as suggested in the recipe comments). In the lemon portion i used zest of 1 lemon, a tablespoon of juice and about 1 teaspoon lemon extract. These had great texture - chewy with nice cracks on top and great flavor - fruity and bright. They look impressive but are deceptively simple. Looking forward to trying other flavor combinations including the original.
