Instructions
1
Preheat oven to 350F.
2
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
3
In a large bowl, beat together the cake mix, peanut butter eggs and vegetable oil until smooth and completely combined, about 2 minutes.
4
Place the white sugar in a small bowl.
5
Use a 1 1/2 Tablespoon cookie scoop to portion out the cookie batter and roll the cookie dough balls in the white sugar until completely coated.
6
Place the coated cookie dough balls at least 3″ apart on the prepared cookie sheets.
7
Use a fork to press down in a hatch-pattern on the top of each cookie, flattening them in the process.
8
Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden and spread out.
9
Allow the cookies to cool for 2 minutes on the baking sheet.
10
For the peanut butter frosting, beat together the butter, peanut butter, icing sugar and cream in a small bowl for 2 minutes. Adjust the consistency with additional sugar or cream, as needed.
11
To assemble the cookies, spread 1 teaspoon of the peanut butter frosting on the underside of one cookie, then top with 1/2 teaspoon to 1 teaspoon of the strawberry jam. Sandwich the cookie with a second cookie.
12
Repeat with all cookies.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Cake Mix Substitution Secret 🎂Use a French vanilla or butter pecan cake mix instead of plain yellow for deeper, more complex peanut butter flavor that elevates the cookie beyond basic.
- Cream Butter and Sugar Properly 🧈Beat butter and white sugar for 2-3 minutes until pale and fluffy before adding eggs—this incorporates air for chewier, more tender cookies with better texture.
- Jam Placement Technique 🍓Slightly warm your strawberry jam (15 seconds in microwave) before spreading it on cookies—it spreads smoothly without tearing the delicate frosting layer.
- Frosting Consistency Control 🥄Add cream or milk one tablespoon at a time to your peanut butter frosting until it reaches a spreadable consistency that won't ooze out when pressed between warm cookies.
- Cool Before Assembly ❄️Let baked cookies cool completely on the rack (at least 15 minutes) before frosting and jamming—warm cookies cause frosting to melt and jam to absorb unevenly into the cake.
