A tombstone or rectangular cookie cutter gives these treats a sliced-bread shape. (Plus, taking them out just as the edges turn golden helps give them a nice "crust" too!)

Ingredients

1 sugar cookie mix, plus ingredients called for on box
1 jar peanut butter
1 jar strawberry jam or jelly

Directions

1. Step 1Follow package instructions to prepare cookie dough. Flatten dough into a disc shape, cover with plastic wrap, and freeze for about 20 minutes so it's easier to roll out.
2. Step 2On a well-floured surface, roll out the cookie dough to about 1/4" to 1/8" thick. Use a tombstone-shaped or rectangular cookie cutter to cut out each cookie so it resembles a slice of bread. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake according to the package's instructions (typically 10 to 12 minutes), or until the edges of the cookie are lightly golden. Set aside cookies to cool.
3. Step 3Once cooled, slather one cookie with peanut butter and the other with jam, then assemble each "sandwich."
