Peanut Butter Pinwheel Cookies image

The original of this recipe is from Taste of Home Best Holiday Recipes, 2008, but has been tweaked slightly! Preparation time includes time needed for dough to chill in the refrigerator and cooking time is only an estimate, depending on how many sheets of cookies are baked at the same time!
