PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY THUMBPRINT COOKIES



Peanut Butter and Jelly Thumbprint Cookies image

These cookies are great for kids of all ages. I usually double the recipe when I make them. Using a cookie scoop and soda bottle cap to make the indentations results in uniform cookies, which makes a nice presentation. But you can improvise with other lids; just aim for something about the size of a quarter. Use any variety of jelly, but I do not recommend jelly with chunks of fruit, like strawberry. Attempting to move the cookies prior to cooling completely will cause them to break.

Time 4h50m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup unsalted butter
⅔ cup creamy peanut butter
½ cup white sugar
½ cup brown sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
¾ cup seedless raspberry jam

Steps:

  • Sift flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
  • Beat butter, peanut butter, white sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla together in a separate bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Scrape sides of bowl with a rubber spatula. Add egg to butter mixture and beat on medium speed until blended. Scrape side of bowl down again.
  • Beat flour mixture into butter mixture on low speed until just blended. Scrape bowl and mix a few more seconds.
  • Scoop dough into 2 tablespoon-sized balls and arrange on a baking sheet. Cover baking sheet and refrigerate at least 4 hours (overnight is ideal).
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper and arrange cookie balls atop paper.
  • Bake cookies in the preheated oven until partially cooked, 11 minutes.
  • Place raspberry jam in a bowl and stir until syrup consistency.
  • Press a soda bottle cap into the center of each cookie until edges of cookies bulge and begin to crack, making an indentation. Fill each indentation with about 1 teaspoon jam.
  • Bake cookies until edges are lightly browned, 7 minutes longer. Cool cookies completely on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h55m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
3 sleeves (28 crackers) butter crackers
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) salted butter, melted
1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup light brown sugar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup seedless strawberry jam, lightly whisked to loosen

Steps:

  • Make the crust. Spray an 8-inch square metal baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Line with parchment paper, allowing the parchment to overhang the edges of the pan. Spray again and set aside.
  • In a food processor, pulse the crackers, brown sugar and butter until combined and it resembles wet sand. Remove and press into the bottom of the pan. Refrigerate for an hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Make the PB layer: In a stand mixer or with a hand-held mixer, beat the peanut butter, brown sugar and butter in a bowl until smooth. Remove the pan from the refrigerator and spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the bottom layer.
  • Add the jelly swirl. Drop about 9 dollops of the jam around the pan. Use a skewer or butter knife and drag it through the jam and peanut butter to make swirls.
  • Bake until set, about 30 minutes. Allow to cool completely, then remove from the pan and cut into bars the size of your choosing.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh, ripe fruit and creamy peanut butter will make a big difference in the taste of your thumbprints.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Use a small cookie scoop to portion out the dough. This will help you get uniform-sized cookies.
  • Make sure to press your thumb into the center of each cookie to create a well. This is where you will place the jelly.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape.

Conclusion:

These Sunnys Holiday PB&J Thumbprints are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with a simple peanut butter cookie dough that is filled with a sweet and tart jelly. The cookies are then baked until they are golden brown and delicious. These thumbprints are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
