Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup peanut butter
1 cup butter flavored shortening
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup creamy peanut butter
3 cups confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream the shortening, 1 cup creamy peanut butter and white and brown sugars. Add vanilla and then eggs, one at a time. Beat well after each addition. In a small bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. Add slowly to creamy mixture.
  • Shape into 1 inch balls and place on an ungreased cookie sheet, 2 inches apart. Flatten balls with a fork.
  • Bake for 7-8 minutes depending on size (I tend to keep a close eye on them and remove them as soon as they start to get golden. This helps to make them chewy.) Cool on wire racks.
  • To Make the filling: Combine 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract, and milk in a small bowl adding enough milk to make for a creamy, frosting like texture. Spread frosting on one cookie and top off to make "sandwich".

PEANUT BUTTER COCONUT CREAM COOKIE SANDWICHES



Peanut Butter Coconut Cream Cookie Sandwiches image

These cookies resemble a chewier, soft cookie version of a Nutter Butter, made a little more glam with a peanut butter coconut cream filling.

Provided by Samah Dada

Categories     Bake     Cookies     Dessert     Kid-Friendly     Soy Free     Dairy Free     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Vegetarian     Vegan

Yield Makes 8 cookie sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 15

Peanut Butter Coconut Cream:
1 cup Medjool dates (about 10 dates), pitted
⅓ cup creamy peanut butter
⅔ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
¾ cup unsweetened almond milk
Cookies:
½ cup plus 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
½ cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup oat flour
1 cup almond flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
Confectioners' sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the Peanut Butter Coconut Cream:
  • In a high-speed blender, combine the dates, peanut butter, and coconut. Blend together on high speed, gradually adding in the almond milk, ¼ cup at a time (you may not need it all). The mixture should be very creamy. Continue to blend and scrape down the sides of the blender until that smoothness is achieved. Cover and set aside.
  • Make the cookies:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla. Mix together until smooth.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the oat flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Combine the flour mixture and the peanut butter mixture, and then add the almond milk to help everything come together. The dough should be pliable and easy to roll into balls.
  • Create 1- to 2-inch balls of the dough and place them some distance apart on the lined cookie sheet. Flatten the cookies gently with your hands until they are ¼ to ½ inch thick. (You want them fairly thin to create the sandwiches.) Bake for 13 to 15 minutes until the cookies have risen, and are golden around the edges. Then let them cool on the sheet slightly before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Once the cookies are completely cooled, take 2 equal-size cookies and flip them over so the flat side (the bottom) is facing up.
  • Spread 1 to 2 tablespoons or more (depending on how thick you want the filling!) of the Peanut Butter Coconut Cream on one of the cookies and place the second cookie, flat side down, right on top of it. Do this for the rest of the batch until all the cookie sandwiches are assembled. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar, if desired, before serving.

CRISP PEANUT BUTTER SANDWICH COOKIES



Crisp Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies image

Inspired by two recipes in Maida Heatter's "Book of Great Cookies," these crisp treats are the best peanut butter cookies I've ever tasted.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     cookies and bars, dessert

Time 45m

Yield 24 to 28 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 ounces (1 1/4 cups) whole-wheat pastry flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 ounces (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Heaped 1/2 cup smooth organic peanut butter, with no salt or sugar added, plus 2 tablespoons for filling the cookies
5 ounces (3/4 cup) raw brown sugar
1 egg

Steps:

  • Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt.
  • Cream the butter and 1/2 cup of peanut butter in a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, add the raw sugar and beat on medium speed for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the egg and beat together. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and gradually add the flour mixture, beating at low speed.
  • Place a piece of parchment or wax paper on your work surface and spoon the dough onto the paper in a strip 12 to 14 inches long and about 2 inches thick. Fold the paper over the dough and shape the strip of dough into a log. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate several hours or, preferably, overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit with racks positioned in the middle and lower portions. Line baking sheets with parchment. Remove the log of dough from the refrigerator and cut it in half. Rewrap one half and return to the refrigerator. Cut the remaining half into thin rounds, no thicker than 1/4 inch, and place them on the parchment-lined baking sheets about 1 inch apart, with the rows staggered. Place 1/4 teaspoon of peanut butter in the center of each round. Remove the other half of the dough from the refrigerator and slice in rounds. Place each round on top of a peanut butter-topped round. When all of the rounds are covered, lightly flour your fingertips and seal the cookies by pressing down gently all the way around. It won't matter if the top cracks a little. Your rounds should be about 2 1/2 inches in diameter.
  • Bake in the middle of the oven for 15 to 16 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly colored and semi-firm to the touch, switching the baking sheets top to bottom and front to back halfway through. Remove from the heat and allow to cool completely before eating. They won't be crisp until they cool.
