I made these homemade Nutter Butter cookies awhile ago, but their soft texture and sweet, creamy filling still linger in my mind. I followed a recipe from Bouchon Bakery that was posted in The New York Times back in December 2006. However, I left out the chopped peanuts from the cookie dough and added a swirl of strawberry jelly to the filling as an homage to the kid-friendly sandwich. These cookies were extremely delicious, and I’m not embarrassed to say that I was not happy about sharing them. To view the recipe, click here.

I love sandwich cookies! Happy Tuesday
May 22, 2012 @ 13:12:48
I thought it didn’t get any better than a good PB and J sandwich. I was wrong!
May 22, 2012 @ 13:13:12
This recipe looks like it make a lot of cookies — a whole pound of butter in the dough alone — and you still minded sharing?
May 22, 2012 @ 13:42:09
Ooooh, a whole pound of butter; I drooled just reading the recipe–peanut butter cookies are my weakness (ok, one of my weaknesses).
May 22, 2012 @ 13:48:15
My favorite childhood sandwich in cookie form…yum! I’m a fool for strawberry jelly, too.
May 22, 2012 @ 14:13:00
looks like a delicate cookie full of jelly goodness.. yum
May 22, 2012 @ 14:19:09
Positively wicked, but I love that it has oats in it!
May 22, 2012 @ 15:13:37
These cookies look insane – cant go wrong with a delicious filling like this

These look like a delicious afternoon treat!!
May 22, 2012 @ 15:28:56
The DIET BUSTER!!! Yummy made these for me and I promise you’ll NEVER taste anything so decadent..so simple yet AMAZING! I actually added sliced bananas with a drizzle of chocolate syrup with mine. YUM =)
May 22, 2012 @ 16:22:58
This is a great idea for kids school lunch or after school snack. Yum, I love anything PB or Jelly!
May 22, 2012 @ 16:43:39
I haven’t had Nutter Butter cookies in the longest time. Yours look wonderful. I like that you added a little bit of jelly.
May 22, 2012 @ 18:49:39
Adorable!! Such a simple thing to add the jelly, but I bet it made all the difference!!
May 22, 2012 @ 20:18:59
Mmmm….they look tasty! They would be great at a Memorial Day gathering too!
May 22, 2012 @ 20:32:19
Oh friend! These sound amazing! Great minds think alike! I think we both have winners. The best if both worlds- a crunchy PB cream filling and a jelly one go perfect with the cookies! Awesome!
May 22, 2012 @ 20:49:10
I’m a fan of filled cookies too. These look great. Off to get the recipe.
May 22, 2012 @ 21:03:31
I love soft cookies, i think that makes me a little odd, but there is a melt in your mouth thing that i really like.. c
May 22, 2012 @ 21:15:25
These look so delicious!!ove sandwich cookies of any kind.
May 22, 2012 @ 21:34:15
That you can pull up a recipe from 2006 is impressive. Bouchon Bakery. I remember. And, nutter butters – they look delicious. Wouldn’t these be great with a strong cup of coffee? I’m a dipper. Always end up with crumbs in my coffee. Thanks for sharing this with us.
May 22, 2012 @ 21:36:45
These are on my must bake soon list. The ponytails are going to LOVE them.
May 22, 2012 @ 21:40:40
Whoa, I need to make these as soon as possible. My only problem with nutter butters is that they’re not chewy enough. Problem solved!
May 22, 2012 @ 21:43:05
Mmmmm. I could eat a million of these!
May 22, 2012 @ 21:50:44
This looks absolutely delicious! Any kind of cookie will do for me, but I would CRAVE these! YUM!
May 22, 2012 @ 22:29:38
The nut butter looks so smooth and yummy. I love how you added the jelly to make them like peanut butter and jello sandwiches. Lovely looking cookies xx
May 23, 2012 @ 01:16:52

May 23, 2012 @ 21:36:36
