Soft peanut butter cookies, covered with peanuts and filled with strawberry jam. This is like PB&J in a cookie. The crunchy peanuts really gives it a nice texture. I use my homemade strawberry jam in this recipe

Instructions
- In a stand mixer bowl, add in butter and sugar. Beat until light and fluffy. Add in peanut butter and mix until well combined. Add in egg, mix to combine. Add in flour and mix just until combined. Do not overmix to avoid getting dense cookies
- Form 20 balls and place them on baking tray with baking sheet. Put in the fridge for 30 minutes to make it easier to handle later.
- In a bowl, whisk the egg white until frothy. Coat each ball with egg white then peanuts. Place them on baking sheet, 2 inches apart. Gently create a well in the center of each ball with your thumb.
- Pipe in strawberry jam in the well. Bake at 350ºF (175ºC) preheated oven for 13-15 minutes or until golden brown and fully cooked. Cool completely on rack before serving.
