Ingredients
1 c. smooth or crunchy peanut butter
1 c. granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1/4 c. jelly of your choice

Directions:

1. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except jelly and beat at medium-high speed with an electric mixer until the mixture forms a dough and cleans the side of the bowl.

2. Scoop dough out using a tsp. and, using your palms, roll into 1-inch balls. Arrange 3 inches apart on lightly greased cookie sheet. Using the handle of a wooden spoon, make a round depression in the middle of the cookie. Spoon jelly into depressions.

3. Bake in 325°F oven for 15 min. or until cookies are lightly browned. Using a wide turner, transfer cookies to wire cooling racks to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
