To turn basic cookies into an unbeatable anytime snack or dessert, just add the power of PB&J! In these sweet and salty treats, the school-lunch-inspired filling of creamy peanut butter and sweet strawberry jelly truly steals the show. No need to cut off the crusts -- you'll be savoring these little "sandwiches" to the very last bite.
If the traditional peanut butter & jelly flavor profile isn’t your “jam,” substitute with any nut or seed butter (consider cashew, almond or sunflower butter) and any flavor jelly or jam (try grape jelly, blackberry jam, raspberry, blueberry or even rhubarb!).
