Peanut Butter & Jelly Cookies

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
2. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt to a mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside.
3. Add the butter and peanut butter to the bowl of a stand mixer and beat until smooth. Add the sugar and brown sugar and beat until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until combined.
4. Add the flour mixture and mix until just combined.
5. Using a 2 Tbsp cookie scoop, portion the dough into balls. Use your thumb to press an indent in the center of each. Add about 1 tsp of jam (flavor of choice or do a combination of flavors) into each hole. Gently form the dough around the jam to create a ball of dough. It’s OK if the jam isn’t fully enclosed.
6. Place on the prepared baking sheets, spacing apart. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to chill the dough.
7. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Press down to slightly flatten the cookies before baking. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set and the centers are soft.
8. Let cool then serve and enjoy!
9. Leftovers should be stored in an airtight container on the counter.
