Ingredients
  1. ½ cup Eliot’s Adult Nut Butter Honey Chipotle Peanut Butter
  2. ½ cup Brown Sugar
  3. 1 14 ounce can Sweetened Condensed Milk
Instructions
  1. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. In a medium sized sauce pan combine all ingredients over medium-high heat. Gently whisk ingredients until combined and uniform. Keep stirring the mixtures until bubbles start to form on sides.
  2. Once there are bubbles, turn down the heat to medium and set a timer for eight minutes. Continue stirring and after eight minutes immediately remove from heat. Stirring will help avoid the bottom scorching and sticking the sides, don’t scrape anything that might have scorched.
  3. Once removed from the heat pour into your loaf pan lined with parchment. Let cool completely. Placing it in the fridge will accelerate the chilling process to 30-45 mins. Once cool cut into squares or desired size and optionally wrap in wax or parchment paper. If making ahead they will last longer in the fridge but will dry out, if unwrapped.

Ingredients
  1. ½ lb. unsalted butter, at room temperature
  2. 1 ½ cups sugar
  3. 1 t. vanilla extract
  4. 2 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
  5. 2 cups (18 ounces) creamy peanut butter (recommended: Skippy)*
  6. 3 cups all-purpose flour
  7. 1 t. baking powder
  8. 1 ½ t. kosher salt
  9. 1 ½ cups raspberry jam or other jam (18 oz. jar)
  10. 2/3 cups salted peanuts, coarsely chopped
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Grease and flour a 9x13x2 inch baking pan.
  3. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed until light yellow, about 2 minutes. With mixer on low speed, add the vanilla, eggs, and peanut butter and mix until combined.
  4. In a small bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the flour mixture to the peanut butter mixture. Mix just until combined.
  5. Spread two thirds of the dough in the prepared pan, using a knife to spread it evenly. Spread the jam evenly over the dough. Drop small globs of the remaining dough evenly over the jam. Don’t worry if the jam isn’t covered; the dough will spread when it bakes.
  6. Sprinkle with the chopped peanuts and bake for 45 minutes, until golden brown.
  7. Cool and cut into small squares. Enjoy!
Notes
