• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Divide dough into 4 equal parts, working with one-quarter of the dough at a time. Refrigerate remaining dough.
• Roll dough very thin on lightly floured board. Cut into 2-inch squares and place on baking sheet. Put 1 teaspoon of nut filling in center of square and top with another square of dough. Press edges together with a floured fork.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool slightly and dust with confectioners' sugar.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone mat, and set aside.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cornflour, and salt. Set aside.
• In a separate large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugars until combined.
• Add the egg, vanilla, and peanut butter, and mix until combined.
• Add the dry ingredients, and mix until just combined - do not overmix.
• Roll the dough into 2oz balls. Form the balls into flat circles, and place 1 teaspoon of jam into the centres. Form the dough back into balls, sealing the jam inside.

PBJ SANDWICH COOKIES

Steps:

• Use an electric mixer to cream together the butter, sugar and peanut butter; add egg and beat until well blended.
• In a bowl, combine flour, salt and baking powder. Add dry ingredients to wet, adding a little milk as necessary to make dough just soft enough to handle. Stir in the vanilla. Shape dough into a log about 1 1/2 inches in diameter, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 2 days (or wrap well and freeze).
• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease 1 or 2 baking sheets. Cut slices about 1/8-inch thick from chilled or frozen log. Bake until edges are lightly brown and center set, 6 to 10 minutes. Cool for about 2 minutes on sheets before using a spatula to transfer cookies to a rack to finish cooling. Sandwich flat sides of two cookies together with a heaping teaspoonful of jam; repeat using all cookies.
