Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 x 13 x 2-inch
baking pan.
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle
attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed until
light yellow, about 2 minutes. With the mixer on low speed, add
the vanilla, eggs, and peanut butter and mix until well combined.
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.
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 all the jam isn’t covered; the dough will spread
when it bakes. Sprinkle with the chopped peanuts and bake for
45 minutes, until golden brown. Cool and cut into small squares.
