You can use any flavor jam or jelly you like; substitute roasted salted peanuts to play up the salty-sweet angle.

Ingredients

Makes thirty-two 1½” squares Servings

¾

cup (1½ sticks) unsalted butter, melted, slightly cooled, plus more for pan

2

cups all-purpose flour

teaspoons baking powder

teaspoons kosher salt

3

large eggs, room temperature

cups (packed) light brown sugar

1

cup smooth peanut butter

teaspoons vanilla extract

¼

cup strawberry jam

2

    Step 2

    Whisk eggs, brown sugar, peanut butter, vanilla extract, and ¾ cup butter in a large bowl. Add dry ingredients and fold in just to combine. Scrape batter into prepared baking dish. Spoon dollops of jam over batter and top with peanuts.
