Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the peanut butter, unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients until a smooth dough forms.
Scoop out two tablespoons of dough and flatten it into discs; place half of them on the prepared baking sheet.
Add one teaspoon of jelly in the center of each disc.
Top each with another disc of dough, sealing the edges by pressing down gently with a fork.
Bake for about 12-15 minutes until golden brown around the edges.
Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for five minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
