Categories     Desserts

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup fresh strawberry , or frozen, stemmed and quartered
½ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice
vegetable oil, for frying
4 slices white bread
¼ cup creamy peanut butter
¼ cup strawberry jelly, preserves
1 cup pancake mix, batter prepared according to package instructions
powdered sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the strawberries, granulated sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Cook until the berries have started to break down into a thick sauce, 10-15 minutes.
  • Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a cast iron skillet or deep pan over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C). To test the oil temperature, add a couple drops of pancake batter; if it sizzles immediately, the oil is hot enough.
  • Spread the peanut butter over 2 slices of bread. Spread the jelly over the remaining 2 slices of bread. Sandwich the peanut butter and jelly halves together.
  • Coat each sandwich in the pancake batter. Carefully place in the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate to drain.
  • Cut the sandwiches in half on the diagonal. Place on a plate, pour the strawberry syrup on top, and dust with powdered sugar.
  • Enjoy!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 55m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for the pan
All-purpose flour, for the pan
1 18.25-ounce box white cake mix, plus required ingredients
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 1/2 to 2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 to 3 tablespoons milk
3/4 cup grape jelly

Steps:

  • Butter a 9-inch-square cake pan, line with parchment, then butter again and dust with flour. Make the cake mix and fill the pan three-quarters full (you'll have batter left over). Bake at 350 degrees F until a toothpick comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Let the cake cool in the pan 10 minutes, then turn out onto a rack and let cool completely. Transfer the cake to a work surface. Trim off the top using a serrated knife, then slice the cake in half horizontally.
  • Beat the butter and peanut butter with a mixer until smooth. Alternate adding the confectioners' sugar and milk, beating after each addition, until the frosting is fluffy and smooth. In another bowl, whisk the grape jelly until it is loose and spreadable.
  • Spread a thick layer of peanut butter frosting on the bottom cake half.
  • Spread the grape jelly on top of the peanut butter frosting, making sure to reach the edges. Top with the remaining cake layer.
  • Cut the cake in half diagonally and transfer to a serving plate. Separate the halves slightly to show the filling.

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY SANDWICH COOKIES

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.

PEANUT BUTTER, JELLY, AND CHIP SANDWICH



Peanut Butter, Jelly, and Chip Sandwich image

My younger brother and I would always take our potato chips and put them inside our PB&J sandwich. We loved the crunch! And, the saltiness of the chips really off-sets the sweetness of the sandwich. I think we got the idea from an episode of the Cosby Show after seeing Cliff Huxtable line his hoagie with potato chips and wash it all down with grape soda!
