Making these cookies with unsalted butter, sodium- and potassium-free baking soda, and unsalted peanut butter leaves each cookie with only 5mg of sodium! Sodium-free baking soda and no-salt peanut butter, are readily available online. I used EnerG no-sodium baking powder and Teddy Bear all-natural unsalted peanut butter to make...

Provided by Heidi Hoerman

Categories     Cookies

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 c all purpose flour
1 tsp sodium-free baking soda (or 1/2 tsp regular baking soda)
1/2 c butter, unsalted, at room temperature (1 stick)
1/2 c dark brown sugar
1/4 c granulated sugar, plus 3 tbl., divided
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
3/4 c unsalted peanut butter

Steps:

  • 1. Stir baking soda into flour and set aside.
  • 2. Beat the butter until light and fluffy using an electric mixer or vigorously beat by hand. One at a time, beating until light and fluffy each time, add the brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, egg, vanilla extract and peanut butter.
  • 3. Beat in the flour mixture in thirds, beating between each. Scrape down the bowl as necessary to mix all ingredients. Do not over beat. Cover the dough and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
  • 4. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Space two racks, at least 3 inches apart) in the middle of the oven.

  • 6. Evenly space the balls on two parchment-lined cookie sheets. Using a fork, slightly flatten each ball with cross-hatching, making the dough about half its original height.
  • 7. Bake the cookies for a total of 10 minutes, turning and switching cookie sheets half way through. If you do not open the oven and turn the cookies or use a convection oven, cook for 8 to 9 minutes and watch carefully for uneven cooking. Do not overcook.
  • 8. Remove from oven and allow to cool on the cookie sheets at least 15 minutes. The cookies will not spread very much and may seem undercooked. They will stiffen upon cooling.

LEMON BASIL CURD BUTTER COOKIES FROM THE COOKIE BOOK



LEMON BASIL CURD BUTTER COOKIES from the Cookie Book image

Reprinted with permission from The Cookie Book by Rebecca Firth, Page Street Publishing Co. 2018. Photo credit: Rebecca Firth. "Sweet baby Jesus where have these been all my life? These are bright and lemony with the infusion of fresh basil transforming them to sublime. Maybe even otherworldly. I chose a large cut-out for the top cookie to highlight the vibrancy of the curd. These will quickly become a favorite. Promise." -- Rebecca Firth

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h

Yield 32 sandwich cookies

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons lemon zest
4 tablespoons powdered sugar
2 large eggs
1 large egg yolk
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 to 3 lemons)
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup fresh basil, tightly packed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
16 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon zest
1 large egg, room temperature
1 large egg yolk, room temperature
1 tablespoon milk, room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons real vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
2 cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • To make the curd, place the granulated sugar and lemon zest in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade and pulse several times to combine. Add in the powdered sugar, eggs, egg yolk and lemon juice and run the machine for 30 to 60 seconds or until combined. Add in the flour and run the machine for 30 seconds more.
  • Strain the mixture into a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Add the basil and butter and stir constantly for 6 to 8 minutes or until thickened. Strain once again if the mixture developed any lumps and immediately place in a small, heat-safe bowl and cover with plastic wrap, directly on the surface of the curd. Place in the fridge to chill completely.
  • To make the cookies, if your butter isn't super soft, heat it in the microwave on high for 5 to 10 seconds. In an electric stand mixer fitted with the paddle, add the butter, powdered sugar and lemon zest and run the machine on medium for 4 minutes or until smooth. With the machine on low, add in the egg, egg yolk, milk, vanilla and salt and run the machine on low for several minutes more. Make sure to scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl so that everything is incorporated. The mixture may look curdled. Dump in the flour and run the machine on the lowest setting until the dough comes together.
  • Place a silicone baking mat on the counter and then place a piece of parchment paper on top, lightly flouring it. Set the dough on top and sprinkle with a bit more flour. Rub some flour over your rolling pin and roll the dough to 1/4-inch (0.7-cm) thickness. Use the parchment paper to transfer it onto a baking sheet and chill in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes or in the refrigerator for 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and line several baking sheets with parchment paper. Grab a 1 3/4-inch (4.5-cm) round cookie cutter and a 1 1/4-inch (3.3-cm) round cookie cutter. Cut as many 1 3/4-inch (4.5-cm) circles out of the dough as you can. Re-roll the scraps and cut as many from that dough. Use the 1 1/4-inch (3.3-cm) cutter to cut smaller circles out of half of the 1 3/4-inch (4.5-cm) circles. Place all of the cookies, including the small circles from the cut-out cookies, on the prepared baking sheets with 1 1/2 inches (3.7 cm) between each cookie, and freeze for 10 minutes or refrigerate for 20 minutes.
  • Bake one sheet at a time in the center of the oven for 8 to 9 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet. To assemble, for the larger cookies, smear some curd on the solid circle and top with an 'O' shaped cookie. For the smaller cookies, smear some curd on one cookie and top with a same-sized cookie.

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY COOKIE SANDWICHES (PB&J COOKIES) - SWEETS BY ELISE



Peanut Butter and Jelly Cookie Sandwiches (PB&J Cookies) - Sweets by Elise image

Peanut Butter and Jelly Cookie Sandwiches are two chewy peanut butter cookies with strawberry jam filling. They're quick, simple, and sweet!

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/4 cups (275g) all purpose flour, properly measured
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup (110g) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup (240g) light brown sugar, packed
1/3 cup (70g) cup granulated sugar + 1/4 cup (53g) for rolling
2 large eggs (100g), room temperature
2 teaspoons (8g) pure vanilla extract
2/3 cup (192g) creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup (110g) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 1/4 cup (150g) powdered sugar
1/4 cup (80g) strawberry preserves, room temperature
1 tablespoons (15g) milk
1/3 cup (107g) strawberry preserves, room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line baking sheets with parchment paper to ensure the cookies come off cleanly and in one pieces after baking.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk all purpose flour, baking soda, and salt together.
  • In a large bowl with a hand mixer or in the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat room temperature butter, light brown sugar, and 1/3 cup granulated sugar together on medium-high speed until smooth, creamy, and fluffy. This should be 2-3 minutes of consistent mixing.
  • Add room temperature eggs to the dough and beat on medium speed until incorporated.
  • Mix vanilla extract and creamy peanut butter into the dough on medium speed until smooth. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula before mixing again to make sure the ingredients are properly incorporated.
  • Carefully, add the dry ingredients to your wet batter on low speed and in several additions to avoid making a mess. Mix only until you see the dry ingredients disappear into the batter, as mixing past this point can create dense cookies.
  • Roll the balls into 1 tablespoon-sized (35g) dough balls. Roll each ball in the extra 1/4 cup of sugar before placing them on the baking sheet.
  • Bake the cookies for 8-12 minutes or until the tops are cracked, the centers look domed and slightly soft, and the edges are light golden brown.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack or plate to finish cooling.
  • In a large bowl with a hand mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat room temperature butter on medium-high speed until smooth.
  • Slowly, add powdered sugar to the mixture, beating on low speed to avoid the powdered sugar spilling out of the bowl. Once the powdered sugar is fully incorporated, beat for another minute to ensure the mixture is smooth.
  • Add the room temperature strawberry preserves to the frosting. Beat until combined. Scrape down the sides and the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula to ensure the ingredients are properly incorporated throughout.
  • If desired, transfer the frosting to a piping bag or a zippable plastic bag with the corner snipped off for better control.
  • Top half of your cooled peanut butter cookies with the strawberry jam frosting.
  • Heat 1/3 cup (107g) of strawberry preserves in the microwave for about 10 seconds before stirring aggressively with a spoon to smooth it out. If desired, transfer the jam to a piping bag or zippable plastic bag with part of the corner snipped off for more control.
  • Top each frosted cookie with a dollop of strawberry jam as desired. For cleaner cookies, keep the jam towards the center of the cookie.
  • Add an unfrosted cookie to the top of each frosted and topped cookie to create a cookie sandwich.
  • For best results, allow the sandwiches to rest to firm up before storing at room temperature tightly covered or in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

GRAHAM CRACKER AND COOKIE BUTTER SANDWICH COOKIES

Provided by Chrystal Cackler @journeyrock92

Categories     Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup(s) brown sugar
1 - 8oz stick butter, softened
1 - egg
1 teaspoon(s) vanilla
1 1/3 cup(s) flour
1 teaspoon(s) baking powder
1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
3/4 cup(s) graham cracker crumbs, approximately 8 full graham crackers
FOR THE COOKIE BUTTER FILLING
1/4 cup(s) speculoos cookie butter
1/4 cup(s) powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon(s) vanilla
1/4 teaspoon(s) salt
3 tablespoon(s) softened butter
3 tablespoon(s) heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 and prepare baking sheets with parchment paper. Using a mixer, cream butter and brown sugar until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add egg and vanilla and beat for an additional 2 minutes. In a large bowl combine flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder, and salt. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, scraping down the side of the bowl, until combined.
  • To make cookies uniform in size, I used a small cookie scoop. If you don't have a cookie scoop, just try to measure out uniform dough so your cookies are easier to sandwich. Bake for 10-12 minutes, cookies will not brown much, so be careful not to overbake.
  • Using your mixer combine all ingredients except heavy cream, scraping bowl as needed. Once combined add heavy cream and beat on high until smooth and creamy. Once cookies are cool, spread a layer of cookie butter filling on the flat side of a graham cookie, top with another cookie and you have a perfect little sandwich!

UNLEVENED PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES (FOR COOKIE STAMPING)



Unlevened Peanut Butter Cookies (For Cookie Stamping) image

This simple recipe is for unlevened cookies, meaning they contain no ingredients to make them rise, so this makes them perfect for use with cookie stamps. They will hold a nice, clean, sharp image when you stamp them. I made adorable little Jack-o-lantern cookies by adding orange food coloring to the wet ingredients in the dough, and then stamping them with the Stampin' Up! Sweet Cookie Press Jack-o-lantern face. They are a little crispier than typical peanut butter cookies since they don't rise, so to keep them moist and chewy DON'T overbake, and store them in an airtight container with a few slices of store-bought bread. The preservatives in the bread will keep them fresher. Enjoy!

1/2 cup flour (DO NOT use self-rising flour)

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients together. Roll in 1 inch balls. Place on ungreased cookiesheet 2 inches between each cookie. Refrigerate dough balls for 10-15 minutes to make them firm. Press down the dough ball with a cookie stamp dusted with flour or powdered sugar to prevent sticking. If you don't own cookie stamps, you can use a fork to create the more traditional grid design. Bake in 350 degree oven for 10-12 minute.
