GIANT PEANUT BUTTER SANDWICH COOKIE



Giant Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookie image

Just like your favorite Nutter Butter cookie -- only bigger and better! Invite all of the peanut butter fanatics in your life over to share.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 3h20m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling (see Cook's Note)
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 sticks (16 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 1/2 cups smooth peanut butter
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups smooth peanut butter
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3 cups confectioners' sugar

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.

2/3 cup evaporated milk

  • Reduce speed to low; slowly add flour. Mix until just combined; do not overmix. Divide dough into 4 equal pieces and shape each piece into a disk. Cover tightly with plastic wrap. Transfer to refrigerator and chill until firm, at least 1 hour.

  • Working with one disk at a time, form dough into 1-teaspoon-sized balls. Roll each ball in sanding sugar and place on prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart. Lightly dip the bottom of a drinking glass in flour and gently press down on ball to flatten slightly. Transfer baking sheets to oven and bake until puffy, but still soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool slightly on baking sheets before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Using a small offset spatula, carefully spread about 1 teaspoon filling on the flat side of one cookie; top with another cookie to make a sandwich. Repeat process with remaining filling and cookies.

Categories     Cookies

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 2

4 pkg store bought molasses cookies
1 can(s) cream cheese frosting

Steps:

  • 1. Remove cookies from wrapper.
  • 2. Frost 10 cookies with a thin layer of frosting.
  • 3. Place the other 10 cookies on top of frosted cookies.
  • 4. Place each cookie on wax paper for 30 minutes.

  • 6. Yummy!

Tips:

  • Use cold butter: Cold butter is easier to work with and will help prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the cookies, making them light and airy.
  • Add the eggs one at a time: Adding the eggs one at a time will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help to firm it up and make it easier to handle.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just starting to brown: Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before filling them: This will help to prevent the filling from making the cookies soggy.

Conclusion:

Sandwich cookies are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a quick snack or a special occasion. With so many different flavor combinations to choose from, there is sure to be a sandwich cookie that everyone will love.
