Ingredients
– 1/3 cup cream (or evaporated milk as an alternative)
– 1 tablespoon butter
– 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
– 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
– 1/4 to 1/2 cup peanut butter with a spreadable consistency
Instructions
1-Getting started: Getting started with this recipe is as easy as heating a few items on the stove. First, prepare your workspace by gathering all ingredients and tools to ensure a smooth process. To prepare, heat the butter and cream (or evaporated milk) over medium heat until the butter melts, then remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
2-Next, gradually mix this cream mixture into the powdered sugar in a large bowl to form a dough-like consistency, being careful not to add all the cream mixture at once to avoid a sticky dough.
3-After mixing, chill the dough in the refrigerator for one hour to make it easier to handle.
4-Once chilled, roll the dough out very thin on wax paper, using powdered sugar to prevent sticking, then spread the peanut butter evenly over the rolled dough.
5-Finally, roll the dough into a log and slice it into pinwheels, with preparation time taking about 25 minutes plus one hour for chilling.
For a fun variation, add a thin layer of jelly on top of the peanut butter before rolling to create a peanut butter and jelly version that kids will love.
