Ingredients

  • 90g all-purpose flour

  • 1/4 tsp baking powder

  • 57g unsalted butter (room temperature)

  • 40g brown sugar

  • 40g sugar

  • Pinch of salt

  • 125g peanut butter

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 egg (room temperature)

  • Strawberry jam (around 20-30 grams)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F/176C.
  • Cream butter, sugars and salt. (I used a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment)
  • Add peanut butter and mix until incorporated.
  • Mix in the egg and vanilla extract, then sift the flour and baking powder in and beat until incorporated.
  • Roll dough into one inch balls and place on a baking sheet lined with waxed/parchment paper.
  • Flatten cookies with the palm of your hands and with the help of an utensil (I used the handle of a spoon) make the hearts in the middle of the cookies.
  • In a pastry bag for ease, add strawberry jam and then fill the hearts with it.
  • Bake cookies for about 10 minutes.
  • Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet (they need to set up before being transferred).
