Peanut Butter And Jelly Tart Food

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY BARS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Grease a 9 by 13 by 2-inch cake pan. Line it with parchment paper, then grease and flour the pan.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed until light yellow, about 2 minutes. With the mixer on low speed, add the vanilla, eggs, and peanut butter and mix until all ingredients are combined.
• In a small bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the flour mixture to the peanut butter mixture. Mix just until combined.
• Spread 2/3 of the dough into the prepared cake pan and spread over the bottom with a knife or offset spatula. Spread the jam evenly over the dough. Drop small globs of the remaining dough evenly over the jam. Don't worry if all the jam isn't covered; it will spread in the oven. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts and bake for 45 minutes, until golden brown. Cool and cut into squares.

PEANUT BUTTER TARTS

Steps:

• Spoon a tablespoonful of whipped topping into each tart shell; set aside. In a large bowl, beat milk and peanut butter until smooth. Add dry pudding mix; beat 1 minute. Fold in remaining whipped topping. , Spoon about 1/2 cup filling into each shell. Chill. Just before serving, top each with 1/2 teaspoon jelly. Leftovers may be frozen.

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY COOKIE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and line your baking pan** with parchment paper or non-stick tin foil. Set aside.
• With a standing mixer or a hand mixer, cream the unsalted butter and peanut butter together, until light and fluffy.
• Next, add in the brown sugar and the granulated sugar. Cream the mixture until well combined.
• Next, add in the egg and mix until combined.
• Add in the vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
• Finally, add in the salt, baking soda, and all purpose flour. Mix until all ingredients are combined.
• Press 2/3 of the peanut butter cookie dough into an even layer in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
• Next, spread the jam/jelly over the top of the cookie dough in an even layer (or as even as possible).
• Next, if adding fresh berries, sprinkle them over the top of the jam.
• Take the remaining peanut butter cookie dough and spread it over the top of the jam. Take a little dough at a time, flatten it into your hand, and then place it on top of the jam.
• (It's okay if not all of the jam is covered, but flattening the dough will help to cover more of the jam as well as help the cookies to bake more evenly.)
• Sprinkle the top with peanuts.
• Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the tops of the cookie bars are golden brown and the center is set. If the bars are browning too quickly, tent a piece of non-stick foil over the top of the bars and continue cooking.
• Allow to cool before cutting and serving.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge.

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY TART

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pulse butter, sugar, and salt in a food processor until smooth, scraping bowl down once. Add flour and pulse just until mixture forms large clumps. Turn out onto very lightly floured parchment. Knead once or twice, then shape into a flat rectangle.
• Lay a sheet of plastic wrap on top of dough and roll out to a 13-by-6-inch rectangle. Transfer to a baking sheet. Fold edges in to create a 1/2-inch border; crimp so border is raised slightly less than 1/2 inch (final size of dough should be 12 by 5 inches). Prick all over with a fork. Freeze 20 minutes.
• Bake crust 15 minutes. Remove from oven; flatten center with the bottom of a measuring cup. Bake until pale golden, about 12 minutes more.
• Remove crust from oven and spread with peanut butter. Drizzle with jelly, then swirl it with a skewer. Bake until jelly just begins to bubble, 6 to 7 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack 15 minutes. Cut into wedges; let cool completely.

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY TART

Steps:

• Make tart shell:
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F. Blend graham crackers, peanuts, and allspice in a food processor until nuts are coarsely ground. Transfer to a bowl, then add butter, stirring until crumbs are thoroughly moistened. Firmly press crumbs evenly over bottom and up sides of tart pan.
• Bake shell until firm, about 10 minutes. Cool completely in pan on a rack.
• Make filling:
• Beat together cream cheese, peanut butter, and butter in a bowl with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until fluffy, about 1 minute. Add brown sugar and beat until incorporated. Beat cream with vanilla in another bowl until it holds soft peaks, then fold into peanut butter mixture gently but thoroughly.
• Assemble tart:
• Spread 1/3 cup jam onto bottom of tart shell with offset spatula. Spread peanut butter mixture on top with cleaned offset spatula. Chill tart, loosely covered with plastic wrap, until firm, at least 3 hours.
• Just before serving, stir grapes with remaining 1/2 cup jam with a rubber spatula until coated. Spoon over tart.
