Ingredients
- 1 cup cream peanut butter additional for drizzle if desired
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup strawberry jam
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a stand mixer, or using a hand mixer, cream together the peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and butter. Add in the eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.
- Add the baking soda, baking powder, salt, and flour and mix until just incorporated.
- Use a medium cookie scoop (about 3 tablespoons) to scoop balls of dough. Place them on one of the baking sheets leaving 2 inches between them and use the back of a tablespoon to press an indent in the center of them. Fill the indent with a scant teaspoon of jam.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes, until the edges are just barely starting to brown. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the pan completely before transferring to a cooling rack.
- Once the cookies have cooled, if you would like to you may melt some peanut butter in the microwave and drizzle it across the cookies.
