Icebox Cake With Slice And Bake Peanut Butter Sandies Recipes

ICE CREAM SANDWICHES WITH SLICE AND BAKE PEANUT BUTTER SANDIES

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
• Combine the butter, peanut butter and brown sugar in another medium bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the flour mixture and blend until just combined. Shape the dough into a log: Place it onto a piece of plastic wrap about 18 inches long. Use your hands to pat the dough into a log about 7 inches long and 2 inches around. Roll the plastic wrap around the dough. Twist both ends of the wrap, like a candy, and tighten both sides until the dough log is compact and tightly wrapped (this might cause the dough to shrink down to a 6-inch log instead of a 7-inch log, but that is okay). Tuck the twisted ends under the dough and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.
• When ready to bake the cookies, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and arrange 2 racks in the middle of the oven. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Remove the plastic wrap from the dough and use a sharp knife to slice the dough into 1/8-inch-thick rounds. Place the rounds about 1 inch apart on the baking sheets, about 12 cookies per baking sheet. Press a halved peanut in to the center of each cookie. If the dough is still very cold, it might crack slightly around the peanut. Simply use your finger to lightly push the dough back together.
• Bake the cookies until the edges are very lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Halfway through cooking, rotate the baking sheets front to back and top to bottom.
• Cool the cookies slightly on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, and then transfer to a cooling rack and cool completely.
• Sandwich the cooled cookies between large scoops of your favorite ice cream.

PB&J ICEBOX CAKE

Steps:

• Beat the heavy cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla until firm peaks form. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside.
• Mix together the cream cheese, peanut butter, and pudding mix until smooth and creamy. Add 3/4 of the whipped cream and fold gently until well combined.
• Lay out a layer of peanut butter cookies in the bottom of a 9-inch square glass baking dish in a single layer, breaking up any cookies to make them fit.
• Pour 1/3 of the peanut butter cream over the cookies and spread out evenly. Top with 3/4 cup jelly, 1/2 cup strawberry slices and 1/2 cup chopped peanut butter cups.
• Repeat the process twice more with another layer of peanut butter cookies, cream, jelly, strawberries and peanut butter cups.
• Top with the reserved whipped cream and spread out evenly. Dollop teaspoons of jelly over the top and swirl into the cream with a knife or skewer.
• Sprinkle with the remaining peanut butter cups and salted peanuts. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight. Slice and serve.
