Hell Fire Pepper Jelly Peanut Butter Sandwiches and Giveaway
A peanut butter sandwich cookie with a hot and spicy kick.
Servings 40 -50
Ingredients
- ½ cup regular or butter flavored shortening I used butter flavored
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup peanut butter crunchy or creamy okay
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup firmly packed brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg beaten
- 1 cup 4.5 oz all-purpose flour
- Some Hell Fire Pepper Jelly
- Extra peanut butter for filling sandwiches
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325F and have ready a large, ungreased baking sheet.
- With an electric mixer, beat the shortening, salt, baking soda and peanut butter together. Beat in both of the sugars and the vanilla. Beat in the egg.
- By hand or using the lowest speed of the mixer, stir in the flour. Using a rounded ½ teaspoon measure, scoop up dough and shape into small balls. Arrange the small balls on the baking sheet spacing about 1 1 ½ cinches apart. Using a damp fork, press the balls down and make criss-crosses. Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes or until edges are brown and cookies appear done. Remove to a wire rack to cool.
- When cookies are completely cool, sandwich a little peanut butter and some Hell Fire Pepper Jelly between two cookies. Repeat until you’ve made about 45 or 50 little sandwiches.
