Peanut butter and Jelly Cookies to enjoy one of the most popular flavor combinations! This super easy recipe for the best sandwich cookies will quickly become your family’s favorite!
PEANUT BUTTER JELLY COOKIES
Knowing my kids obsession with anything peanut butter & jelly, I should have expected that these cookies will be a hit in our family. My Hubby and I are huge fans of this combo too. So you can only imagine how fast these sandwich cookies disappeared! These are so far the best peanut butter sandwich cookies I have ever made or tried. And the filling itself is so good, you will want to save some to eat it with a spoon! They are a perfect after-school snack or a sweet surprise for lunch boxes. And if you are an adult, let your inner kid out and enjoy these too! I need to try this idea with our popular Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies, that require only 3 ingredients!
HOW TO MAKE PEANUT BUTTER JELLY COOKIES?
- Preheat the oven and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium mixing bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, salt and baking powder. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together both butters until smooth. Add both sugars and beat until well combined. Add egg and vanilla and beat until smooth.
- With the mixer on low, add the flour mixture. Stir in oats with a wooden spoon.
- Scoop a tablespoon size mounds of dough onto prepared baking sheet and flatten gently with a back of the spoon.
- Bake the cookies until the edges start to brown.
- Cool cookies on the sheet.

These would DISAPPEAR if I made them, Anna! Unfortunately, they’d be disappearing into my mouth and reappearing on my waistline but it’d be worth every calorie!
