Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (softened)
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Peanut butter (creamy)
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 0.5 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Milk
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until a soft dough forms.
Divide the dough in half, shape into discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar together until smooth.
On a floured surface, roll out one disc of dough into a rectangle about 1/4-inch thick.
Spread half of the peanut butter mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle half of the chocolate chips over the peanut butter layer.
Carefully roll the dough up into a tight log, starting at one long side. Repeat with the second disc of dough and the remaining filling.
Wrap each log in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Slice each log into 1/4-inch thick spirals and place them on the prepared baking sheets, about 1 inch apart.
Lightly brush the spirals with milk to help them achieve a golden-brown finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and allow the spirals to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your delicious Peanut Butter Spirals!
