Ingredients
Method
- Cream butter, peanut butter, and both sugars until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Beat in egg and vanilla extract.
- Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt; fold into wet ingredients until just combined.
- Roll into 1-tablespoon balls. Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake plain dough balls 8-9 minutes, until just set.
- While warm, press a well into each cookie.
- Warm jam until smooth; spoon about 1/2 tsp into each well.
- Bake 4-5 minutes more, until jam is glossy and set.
- Cool completely on the pan before serving.
Notes
- Press the indent while the cookies are still warm from the oven — a cooled cookie is much more likely to crack at the edges.
- The dough looks dry and crumbly before baking; that's normal for peanut butter dough and bakes up soft anyway.
