Peanut Butter Cup Sandwich Food

GIANT PEANUT BUTTER SANDWICH COOKIE

Steps:

• For the cookies: Stir together the flour and baking soda in a bowl. Cream the butter and both sugars on high speed in an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light, about 2 minutes. Add the peanut butter and beat until smooth. Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until incorporated. Beat in the vanilla. Add the flour mixture and beat on low until just combined. Divide the dough in half, form into 2 rectangles, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
• Cut a 12-inch peanut shape out of parchment to use as a template. Roll one piece of dough between two pieces of parchment to a rectangle a little bigger than the template. Remove the top piece of parchment and, using a pizza wheel or paring knife, cut the dough into a peanut shape. Reserve the dough scraps. Repeat with the remaining dough piece. Mold the scraps into a rectangle, wrap in plastic and chill along with the peanut shapes until firm, about 30 minutes.
• For the filling: Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Beat the peanut butter and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until combined. Slowly add the confectioners' sugar, about a 1/4 cup at a time, beating in between additions, until completely incorporated.
• To build the cookie: Roll out the chilled rectangle of dough scraps into a large rectangle about 1/4-inch thick. Use a pizza wheel or sharp paring knife to cut long strips about 1/2-inch wide. Transfer the peanut-shaped pieces of dough on their pieces of parchment to 2 baking sheets. Lay the dough strips on top of one of the peanut-shaped pieces of dough in a crisscross, freeform pattern to mimic the lines on a peanut. Use a rolling pin to gently flatten and adhere the strips to the peanut.
• Bake the cookies until lightly golden around the edges and dry on top, about 30 minutes. Cool completely on the baking sheets on a wire rack.
• Turn over the cookie without lines so it sits flat-side up on a flat serving plate. Spread the filling evenly to the edges. Top with the second cookie, lined-side up. Use a serrated knife to cut into squares for serving.

PEANUT BUTTER CUPS

Steps:

• Coat a small cup muffin tin with cooking spray. In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave chocolate with butter and oil, stirring often, until melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour about a tablespoon of the chocolate mixture into each muffin cup.
• Melt peanut butter in microwave, 30 to 40 seconds. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of melted peanut butter over chocolate in each muffin cup. Top with another tablespoon of chocolate.
• Chill in refrigerator 30 minutes, until set.

PEANUT BUTTER CUP SANDWICH

Steps:

• Toast the English muffin halves under a broiler or in a toaster. I find that my toaster's bagel setting helps to keep the cut sides crispy while leaving the outsides nice and soft.
• I recommend doing the next few steps with the muffin as hot as possible out of the toaster/oven. I'm sure this would be good cold too, but something about the heat just turns this into a lovely gooey mess instead of just a plain old sandwich! Even if you need to refrigerate the sandwich later, I recommend building the sandwich hot first.
• Spread half of the peanut butter on each muffin half. If you're working with a hot muffin this should result in the peanut butter almost starting to melt.
• Drizzle half of the honey over each muffin half. You can "eyeball" this amount if you have the traditional bear-style honey like I do.
• Sprinkle half of the chocolate chips over each muffin half. Try to spread them out. If you're working with a hot muffin this will result in the chocolate chips melting into the peanut butter, so the more area you cover, the more chocolate you'll get with each bite!
• I usually serve this open face style, but if you're making a sandwich, just press the two halves together at this point.
• Serve with dollops of whipped topping on top, or if you're doing this sandwich style, just include some for dipping. If you're able to enjoy this hot, the whipped topping will melt all over the muffin and make things even more messy, but oh so good!
