Pretty Peanut Butter and Chocolate Pinwheels
- 150 g butter, softened (5 oz)
- 12 cup peanut butter, smooth, unsweetened (4 oz or 125g)
- 750 ml flour, sifted (3 cups)
- 300 ml sugar (10 oz)
- 1 egg
- 100 ml milk (about 2 - 3 tablespoons less than 1/2 cup)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla essence
- 12 teaspoon salt
- 100 g milk chocolate, melted (3.3 oz or 1 slab)
- Grease 2 baking tins.
- Cream together the butter and peanut butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Add half the flour, the sugar, egg, milk, vanilla and salt.
- Stir in the remaining flour, and mix well.
- Divide the dough in half.
- Stir the melted chocolate into one half of the dough and mix in thoroughly.
- Place the two dough mixtures between sheets of greaseproof paper, and roll each out thinly, into about the same size rectangle, about 10 x 13 inches.
- (You can try rolling it out with the help of flour and without the use of the paper).
- Place the peanut butter dough on top of the chocolate dough, roll up like a jelly roll, wrap in clingwrap, and chill in fridge for 2 hours.
- Heat oven to 180 deg C/350 deg F.
- Cut the chilled dough into 6mm/1/4 inch slices.
- Place 1/2 inch apart on the greased tins, and bake until pale golden brown and crisp, 10 - 15 minutes.
- Cool on wire racks and store in airtight container.
- Makes roughly 35 - 45, depending on how you rolled out your dough.
