- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature

“So much fun to slice and make these Neapolitan Cookies! Even with the strawberry extract the strawberry flavor was too subtle for me so next time I will double the amount to see what happens. Even after putting the baking sheets in the freezer for 15 minutes prior to going into the oven, the cookies spread a little bit and looked “pillowy”. But they were easy to reshape, using a spatula, when they came out of the oven.”
