The standby favorite sandwich in a delicious cookie bar. Use any flavor of jam, jelly or preserves you like best. In the photo I used apricot preserves. I belong to a task force known as PB&J (no relation to food) and made these to surprise the rest at a meeting. Read more They were a huge hit! See less
