With summer coming to an end soon, what better way to celebrate back to school than Peanut Butter & Jelly Cookies?! These are so fun and would be the perfect treat to launch back to school or they would even be super good for an after school snack.
These Peanut Butter & Jelly Cookies are soft, chewy and have the perfect texture and flavor. They are a soft peanut butter cookie with peanut butter & jelly swirled into it. It’s like a pb & j sandwich but in cookie form.

With back to school season nearing, there can be a lot of mixed feelings going on. I love making recipes to help celebrate every moment of life and make it memorable and special. Sometimes the moments that are hard or eventful, end up being the ones we long for and miss in the years following. It’s so important to make the best of each and every season.
Peanut Butter is one of my favorite things to bake with. I love the flavor and texture of peanut butter cookies and it reflects so much into these cookies. Plus it pairs perfectly with the jelly in this recipe as well.
Making These Cookies
To make these cookies, all you do is start with a simple peanut butter cookie dough that comes together in no time. It’s simple and delicious. Then you make a peanut butter mixture and swirl that into your dough. Do the same with your strawberry jelly. Scoop and bake as normal.
They bake out so perfectly and have the perfect texture for this flavor. I like to top mine off with a small little dollop of peanut butter and jelly to make these look even more appealing. AND of course a sprinkle of flaky sea salt on top.
I love creating a list of all the ingredients you will need to make my recipe on the post before the recipe. That way you can clearly see everything you’ll need and what you may need to go grab at the store to make them.
