Ingredients
- ½ cup butter room temperature
- ¾ cup creamy peanut butter
- ¼ cup cane sugar
- ¼ cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 large eggs room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ cup strawberry jam
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and prepare two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix together the butter and peanut butter until combined. Add the sugars and cream together for 3-5 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until incorporated.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the flour mixture slowly and continue mixing until the dough has formed.
- Scoop even balls of dough, about a tablespoon size and place them about two inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 8 minutes and remove from oven. Using the tip of a spoon or the handle of a spatula, create a small “thumbprint” in the center of the cookies. Return to the oven to bake for 5-7 more minutes, until lightly golden and set.
- Remove cookies from the oven once the edges begin to brown. Add about ½ teaspoon jam to the center “thumbprints”. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
- Recipe: This recipe is adapted from Martha Stewart.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
