Another from the South Beach Diet website. I love PB and J's but haven't tried these yet.
Serves: 12 (2-piece servings)

Ingredients:
3/4 cup granular sugar substitute
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup creamy trans-fat-free peanut butter
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup sugar-free jam, any flavor

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix sugar substitute, egg, and vanilla with an electric mixer set on low for 3 minutes. Add peanut butter and baking soda. Mix on medium until dough comes together, about 30 seconds.
Form dough into 24 (2-teaspoon) balls and place on baking sheet 1 inch apart. Gently press your thumb into the center of each to make an indentation. Fill each indentation with 1/2 teaspoon jam.
Bake until lightly browned on the bottom, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely
