Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl until smooth.
Add in the eggs, peanut butter, and vanilla. Whisk the mixture together until smooth and homogenous.
Whisk in the flour, baking powder, and baking soda until no clumps of dry ingredients remain in the mixture.
Place balls of cookie dough the size of two tablespoons on parchment paper on a cookie sheet and use a spoon to make a small indent in the top of each cookie.
Place a small spoonful of jam in each indent and bake the cookies for 11 minutes.
Allow the cookies to cool before removing them from the pan, serve, and enjoy!
