Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup (170 grams) creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup (57 grams) unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups (340 grams) semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
Binding Ingredient:
- 1 1/2 cups (180 grams) powdered sugar
Garnish/Coating:
(none)
Instructions
- Combine powdered sugar, peanut butter, and softened butter in a mixing bowl, blending until a uniform, silky consistency develops.
- Place the mixture between two parchment paper sheets and carefully roll into a precise rectangular shape, ensuring even thickness.
- Gently drizzle and spread melted chocolate across the entire peanut butter surface, creating a smooth, complete coverage.
- Tightly roll the rectangle from one long edge to the other, forming a compact cylindrical log with defined layers.
- Transfer the log to the refrigerator and allow it to chill for 12 hours, enabling the ingredients to set and solidify completely.
- Remove from refrigerator and slice the log into uniform, thin pinwheel rounds using a sharp knife.
- Arrange the pinwheels on a serving platter and present immediately for a delectable no-bake dessert experience.
Notes
- Ensure powdered sugar is sifted to prevent lumps and create a smoother, more uniform mixture.
- Use room temperature butter and peanut butter for easier blending and a creamier texture.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute butter with coconut oil or vegan margarine.
- Experiment with dark, milk, or white chocolate to customize the pinwheels’ flavor profile.
