PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY SANDWICH COOKIES



Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich Cookies image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 2h15m

Yield About 32 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 1/2 cups smooth peanut butter (not natural)
2/3 cup Concord grape jelly

Steps:

  • Whisk the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in the egg until combined, then beat in the peanut butter until smooth. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the flour mixture until just combined. Turn out the dough onto a piece of parchment paper and pat into a rectangle. Top with another piece of parchment and roll out the dough into a 1/4-inch-thick rectangle. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
  • Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 375 degrees F. Trim the edges of the dough and cut into 1 1/2-inch squares. Arrange 2 inches apart on 2 unlined baking sheets; press each with the back of a fork to make a crisscross pattern, flattening slightly. Gather the scraps and refrigerate until firm, if needed; reroll to cut out more cookies.
  • Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cookies are almost set, about 14 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on the pans, then transfer to racks to cool completely. Sandwich the grape jelly (about 1 teaspoon per sandwich) between the cookies.

Yield Makes about 22 sandwich cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups unbleached all purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (preferably Dutch-process)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 large egg
1 cup creamy peanut butter (do not use old-fashioned style or freshly ground)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Additional sugar
12 ounces imported milk chocolate (such as Lindt), finely chopped
Additional powdered sugar
1 cup (about) strawberry jelly, whisked to loosen

Steps:

  • Whisk flour, cocoa and baking powder in small bowl to blend. Using electric mixer, beat butter, 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup powdered sugar in large bowl until well blended. Beat in egg, then peanut butter and vanilla. Add dry ingredients; beat until well blended. Divide dough into 4 pieces; flatten each into disk. Wrap dough in plastic; chill overnight.
  • Position 1 rack in center and 1 rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 375°F. Butter 2 baking sheets. Sprinkle work surface generously with additional sugar. Place 1 dough disk atop sugar on work surface (dough will be soft; keep remainder refrigerated). Sprinkle top of dough with additional sugar. Roll out dough to generous 1/4-inch thickness, sprinkling with additional sugar as needed to prevent sticking.
  • Using 3-inch heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out cookies. Transfer cookies to prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Using small heart-shaped or round cookie cutter, make 1 hole in center of half of cookies. Gather dough scraps; reshape into disk and refrigerate. Bake cookies until puffed and beginning to crack on top, about 7 minutes. Using spatula, transfer cookies to rack; cool completely. Repeat rolling, cutting and baking with remaining dough disks and scraps. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Store between layers of waxed paper in airtight container.)
  • Stir chopped milk chocolate in top of double boiler over barely simmering water until melted and smooth. Remove chocolate from over water. Sift additional powdered sugar over cookies with hole. Place 1 solid cookie, bottom side up, on work surface. Spread 1 teaspoon melted chocolate over. Spoon 1 scant teaspoon strawberry jelly atop chocolate in center. Immediately top with cookie with hole, placing hole over jelly and pressing gently to adhere (cookies are very tender). (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Store in single layer in airtight container and refrigerate. Cookies may soften slightly.)

PBJ SANDWICH COOKIES



PBJ Sandwich Cookies image

Cookies made with peanut butter seem to keep getting better, especially as we learn to appreciate salty desserts. The peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwich cookie recipe here was inspired by a nearly savory PBJ dessert at Momofuku Ssam Bar a couple of years ago.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     cookies and bars, dessert

Time 40m

Yield 15 to 20 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, more for greasing baking sheets
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup peanut butter, chunky or smooth
1 egg
3 cups all-purpose flour, more for work surface
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon milk, or as needed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup fruit jam or jelly

Steps:

  • Use an electric mixer to cream together the butter, sugar and peanut butter; add egg and beat until well blended.
  • In a bowl, combine flour, salt and baking powder. Add dry ingredients to wet, adding a little milk as necessary to make dough just soft enough to handle. Stir in the vanilla. Shape dough into a log about 1 1/2 inches in diameter, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 2 days (or wrap well and freeze).
  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease 1 or 2 baking sheets. Cut slices about 1/8-inch thick from chilled or frozen log. Bake until edges are lightly brown and center set, 6 to 10 minutes. Cool for about 2 minutes on sheets before using a spatula to transfer cookies to a rack to finish cooling. Sandwich flat sides of two cookies together with a heaping teaspoonful of jam; repeat using all cookies.

Tips:

  • To make the cookies extra peanut buttery, use a combination of peanut butter and butter in the dough.
  • For a chewier cookie, use brown sugar instead of granulated sugar.
  • If you don't have a cookie cutter, you can use a sharp knife to cut out the shapes.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before decorating them.
  • For the best results, use a high-quality jam or jelly.
  • If the jam or jelly is too thick, you can thin it out with a little water.
  • Be careful not to overfill the cookies with jam or jelly, or they will be difficult to close.
  • If you are having trouble getting the cookies to stick together, try using a little water to moisten the edges before pressing them together.
