Question for you all: what’s a good time to have cookies?

a) Never

b) Every once in a while

c) Once a week

d) Anytime!

If you answered a, I am not sure why you are reading this post! But if it’s any other choice, you will love these thumbprint peanut butter cookies with raspberry jam! But if you answered d, then you are a being after my own heart! In that case, you should check out other cookies recipes: cumin seed cookies, pretty pink macarons, chocolate and walnut cookies, ginger bread biscuits and meringue cookies and kisses.

But these peanut butter thumprint cookies are my current favourite cookies! The combination of sweet and tart raspberry jam and slightly salty peanut butters is a match made in heaven! I made a large batch and I sort of refused to share them with anyone else! They were that good!!!

While I made these cookies using fresh raspberry jam (recipe found here), you can use store bought jam!

Notes

You can use store bought jam but I made raspberry jam at home using 100 grams of raspberry. You can find the recipe here
If you can’t find chopped peanuts, buy shelled and unsalted peanuts. Roast them until very lightly browned. Once cool, use a pestle and mortar to break them into smaller bits. Make sure not to ground them
