Instructions
Combine in a large mixing bowl peanut butter, butter, brown sugar, milk and vanilla and blend until smooth.
Combine in a small bowl flour, salt and baking soda. Gradually add to peanut butter mixture and cream until blended. For easier handling, wrap dough in plastic wrap and place in refrigerator until chilled, at least 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 375F and coat a cookie sheet with cooking spray. Using a cookie dough scoop or tablespoon, scoop dough into balls and roll. Coat with granulated sugar and place on cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Dip a fork in water and crisscross the cookie to flatten.
Bake at 375F for 7-9 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Cool completely.
Combine in a medium bowl frosting and strawberry jam. Depending on the flavor, you may want to add strawberry extract, and to add a little color, mix in food coloring. Gently stir in COOL WHIP.
Fill a decorator bag with the strawberry filling or spread with an offset spatula onto bottom side of 1 cookie. Top with another cookie and press together lightly. Repeat with remaining cookies.
Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Madeira, Prosecco
Cream Sherry, Madeira, and Prosecco are my top picks for Cookies. Sweet bubbly Prosecco doesn't overwhelm simple sugar or shortbread cookies, a sweet cream sherry complements spiced cookies, and madeira's nutty notes match cookies with nuts perfectly. One wine you could try is NV Solera Cream Sherry. It has 4.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 17 dollars.
NV Solera Cream Sherry
The Solera Cream Sherry has a brilliant amber and deep copper hue. With butterscotch and pecan aromas, the sweet salted nut and brown spice aromas carry a complex caramel accent. A sweet entry leads to a rounded, lush, moderately full-bodied palate with a lengthy, flavorful finish.
