Ingredients
- 2 pound powdered sugar, divided
- 2 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
- 2-3 teaspoon milk
- one 12-ounce jar smooth peanut butter
Directions
- Reserve about 1⁄4 cup of the powdered sugar to "flour" the dough roll to prevent it from sticking to your counter top or candy prep board.
- Mix remainder of sugar, butter, and vanilla in a large bowl. Add milk in the smallest of increments, a few drops at a time. Be very careful to not use more milk than needed in order to mix these ingredients. This should resemble a dry loaf similar to bread dough. If too much milk is used, the mixture cannot be rolled out.
- When ingredients are thoroughly mixed, sprinkle the reserved powdered sugar on your prep area. Use a rolling pin to roll the loaf into the shape of a flat pie crust, about 1/4-inch thick.
- Once the dough has been rolled to resemble a flat crust, use a table knife to generously cover the flat dough with the peanut butter. Roll the dough into a log shape, similar to a miniature jelly roll.
- Cut into small pieces, 1/3- to 1/2-inch thick. The final result will be pieces that look like pretty pinwheels.
