CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER PINWHEELS



Chocolate Peanut Butter Pinwheels image

This wonderful cookie recipe is one that I am begged to make over the holidays every year! They are out of a really, really old McCall's cookbook that my mother used to use. I took them to work last year, and everyone started calling me Julia Child! They are well worth the effort!

Time 36m

Yield 40 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups sifted flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup creamy peanut butter or 1 cup chunky peanut butter
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (6 ounce) package semisweet chocolate morsels
1 teaspoon butter

Steps:

  • Sift flour with soda and salt.
  • Set aside.
  • Beat butter until fluffy.
  • Beat in sugar.
  • Beat in peanut butter, egg, and vanilla.
  • At low speed, add half flour mixture.
  • Mix in the rest by hand to form a stiff dough.
  • Refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling (I am told that one can easily melt chocolate chips in a microwave, but I have not tried it. If you know how to do it, have at it!) Melt chocolate over hot (NOT BOILING) water, add butter.
  • Cool.
  • Divide dough in half.
  • Roll each half into a 8x10 inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface.
  • Spread each with half the filling.
  • From the long side, roll each rectangle tightly like a jelly roll.
  • Gently press edge to seal.
  • Wrap separately, seam side down, in saran wrap or foil.
  • Refrigerate until firm, about 8 hours or overnight before slicing and baking.
  • (They will keep in the fridge for a little over a week.) Preheat oven to 375, and place 1/2 inch slices 1 1/2 inches apart on a greased cookie sheet.
  • Bake 6-8 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • Let cool for a few minutes on sheet, then cool on wire rack.
  • Makes 40 cookies all together.

5-Ingredient Fix Contest Entry. This stuff is incredible! Delicious candy made with Simply Potatoes and just 4 other ingredients! The candies are gorgeous, too-- colorful pinwheels of sweet decadence. Truly a stand-out recipe! I experimented on a candy recipe I've had for years, and gave it a new, chocolate twist!

PINWHEEL PEANUT BUTTER CANDY



Pinwheel Peanut Butter Candy image

My great aunt used to make this years ago and I remember eating it as a child and thinking that it was the most heavenly stuff ever! After trying several different recipes (many of them requiring that the outer part be a divinity), I think I finally found a recipe that tastes the same, but it is MUCH easier and much less messy!

Categories     Candies

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 lb powdered sugar
6 Tbsp melted butter
1 Tbsp vanilla
1/2 c milk
peanut butter

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all ingredients together (except for the peanut butter). The consistency should be that of a pie dough. Update: I've seen some recipes call for a lot less milk, so add just a little milk and keep adding until the consistence is like pie dough. Separate the dough into four parts.
  • 2. Cover your pastry board with a small amount of powdered sugar to help with rolling the dough. Roll the dough out like a pie crust. I roll mine into a rectangle. Do not roll out too thin.
  • 3. Spread as much peanut butter out onto the flattened dough as you want (I just use enough to cover it thoroughly). Then roll the dough up like you would a jelly roll. Refrigerate and then cut into slices. ENJOY!

Yield Makes about 8 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 10

For filling:
6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup chunky peanut butter
For dough:
3/4 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour (sift before measuring)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Make filling:
  • Melt chocolate in a double boiler or a metal bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water, stirring occasionally, and remove from heat. Stir in peanut butter.
  • Make dough:
  • Beat together butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, then beat in egg and vanilla. Sift flour, baking powder, and salt into egg mixture and beat until combined well.
  • Assemble rolls:
  • Halve dough and roll out each half between sheets of wax paper into a roughly 12- by 8-inch rectangle. Remove top sheets of wax paper (if they stick too much, chill dough briefly to firm up slightly) and divide chocolate filling between rectangles, spreading it in an even layer. Tightly roll up each rectangle jelly-roll fashion, beginning with a long side and using wax paper as an aid, to form a 12-inch log. Wrap rolls in wax paper and then foil. Chill rolls until firm, at least 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Working with 1 roll at a time (keep remaining roll chilled), cut rolls crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices and arrange slices 1 inch apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake in batches in middle of oven until pale golden and set, 8 to 12 minutes. Transfer warm cookies to racks to cool.
