Okay, so these are called Peanut Butter Jelly Time Cookies. Real creative. But fine, yeah... they’re kind of amazing. Soft peanut butter cookie base—dense, rich, like the good kind of college guilt. And right in the center? A dollop of jelly—raspberry or grape, depending on whether your childhood trauma came from PBS or Cartoon Network.
