PB&J OATMEAL BREAKFAST COOKIES

Steps:

• Position the racks in the upper and lower third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Combine the oats, peanuts, strawberries, pepitas, flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl and mix well. In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the peanut butter with the sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Beat in the vanilla.
• With the machine on low speed, gradually add the dry ingredients and mix until incorporated. Turn the machine off and add the strawberry preserves all at once. Mix on low speed just until the preserves are swirled into the dough, about 5 seconds; do not over mix.
• Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets with a 3-tablespoon cookie scoop, making 20 cookies and leaving 2 inches between each. Press down on the cookies with a fork to flatten them slightly.
• Bake until the cookies are slightly risen and very lightly browned on the edges, 13 to 15 minutes; rotate the baking sheets halfway through baking. Let cool before serving.

SUNNY'S HOLIDAY PB AND J THUMBPRINTS

Steps:

• In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, add the butter, peanut butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar, and blend on medium-high speed until creamy. Turn off the mixer and use a rubber spatula to scrape the sides of the bowl, pushing everything back towards the center. Then add the salt, vanilla and egg, and blend until combined. Lower the speed of the mixer and add the flour in 1/2-cup intervals. Between each addition be sure to completely blend in all the flour and scrape the sides as before. Once completely combined, scrape the dough out of the mixer, add to a container with a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Remove the cookie dough from the refrigerator and, using a tablespoon, scoop out the dough and roll into a ball between your hands. Then roll the formed ball in the turbinado sugar and place on the prepared baking sheets. Repeat for the rest of the balls, making sure to separate them on the sheet by about 1 inch. Try chopping roasted peanuts and adding them to the sugar before rolling out all the balls or add a drop of food coloring to the sugar to make the cookies even more festive!
• Once all the balls are on the baking sheet, make an indentation in the center of each using the rounded end of a wooden spoon, the back of a rounded teaspoon or your good old-fashioned thumb. Fill the center of each with about 1/2 teaspoon strawberry preserves. Bake until lightly golden, about 12 minutes. Remove to a wire rack. Let cool before serving.
