GRILLED PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY SANDWICH

Steps:

• Heat griddle or skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. Spread peanut butter on unbuttered side of one slice of bread, and jelly on the other. Place one slice, buttered side down on the griddle. Top with other slice, so that peanut butter and jelly are in the middle. Cook for 4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown, and heated through.

TRADITIONAL PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY

Steps:

• Spread the peanut butter on one piece of bread.
• Spread the jelly on the other side.
• Put the two pieces of bread together to form a sandwich.
• Toddler adaptation: cut off crusts before serving.

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY SANDWICH CAKE

Steps:

• Butter a 9-inch-square cake pan, line with parchment, then butter again and dust with flour. Make the cake mix and fill the pan three-quarters full (you'll have batter left over). Bake at 350 degrees F until a toothpick comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes.
• Let the cake cool in the pan 10 minutes, then turn out onto a rack and let cool completely. Transfer the cake to a work surface. Trim off the top using a serrated knife, then slice the cake in half horizontally.
• Beat the butter and peanut butter with a mixer until smooth. Alternate adding the confectioners' sugar and milk, beating after each addition, until the frosting is fluffy and smooth. In another bowl, whisk the grape jelly until it is loose and spreadable.
• Spread a thick layer of peanut butter frosting on the bottom cake half.
• Spread the grape jelly on top of the peanut butter frosting, making sure to reach the edges. Top with the remaining cake layer.
• Cut the cake in half diagonally and transfer to a serving plate. Separate the halves slightly to show the filling.

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY SANDWICH COOKIES

Steps:

• Whisk the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in the egg until combined, then beat in the peanut butter until smooth. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the flour mixture until just combined. Turn out the dough onto a piece of parchment paper and pat into a rectangle. Top with another piece of parchment and roll out the dough into a 1/4-inch-thick rectangle. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 375 degrees F. Trim the edges of the dough and cut into 1 1/2-inch squares. Arrange 2 inches apart on 2 unlined baking sheets; press each with the back of a fork to make a crisscross pattern, flattening slightly. Gather the scraps and refrigerate until firm, if needed; reroll to cut out more cookies.
• Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cookies are almost set, about 14 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on the pans, then transfer to racks to cool completely. Sandwich the grape jelly (about 1 teaspoon per sandwich) between the cookies.

GOURMET PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY SANDWICH RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Prepare peanut butter sandwich using desired jelly or jam . Make sure it isn't too runny because the sandwich will be heated and jam could leak out.
• Heat a frying pan to melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Tilt pan so butter covers pan evenly. This is key to get a perfectly crispy crust on the bread.
• Butter one side of sandwich. Place buttered-side down in the pan. If possible, place a steak weight or bacon press on sandwich so it cooks evenly. When one side is golden brown, butter other side. Turn sandwich over and place weight back on sandwich. The second side will cook faster because sandwich is already heated.
• Remove sandwich from pan, cut diagonally and serve immediately. Looking for other ways to perk up your beloved PB&J? Here are some other ways to enjoy this common childhood favorite:

PBJ SANDWICH COOKIES

Steps:

• 1. Use an electric mixer to cream together the butter, sugar and peanut butter; add egg and beat until well blended. 2. In a bowl, combine flour, salt and baking powder. Add dry ingredients to wet, adding a little milk as necessary to make dough just soft enough to handle. Stir in the vanilla. Shape dough into a log about 1 1/2 inches in diameter, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 2 days (or wrap well and freeze). 3. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease 1 or 2 baking sheets. Cut slices about 1/8-inch thick from chilled or frozen log. Bake until edges are lightly brown and center set, 6 to 10 minutes. Cool for about 2 minutes on sheets before using a spatula to transfer cookies to a rack to finish cooling. Sandwich flat sides of two cookies together with a heaping teaspoonful of jam; repeat using all cookies.
