Chocolate Peanut Butter Swirls

This is a rendition of a recipe I got from my good friend Susannah (thegirlwiththecake.blogspot.com) and made some changes to:

Here's what you will need:

2 cups all purpose flour

1/2 cups ground peanuts

3 1/2 ounces unsalted butter, cubed

1/2 cup cocoa powder

1 egg, lightly beaten

2 tablespoon iced water

1/4 cup peanut butter

Here's what you do:

1. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Place the flour and nuts in an electric mixer and add the butter and sugar. Process until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add the combined egg and water.

2. Blend just until the mixture forms a dough. Turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 30 seconds or until the dough is nice and smooth.

3. Place the dough onto a large sheet of parchment paper and roll out into a rectangle that is 10x14 inches. {Make sure that all of the edges are even, straight, and that this looks exactly like a rectangle, or you will end up with a horribly uneven roll!}

4. Spread the dough with the peanut butter.

5.Using the parchment paper to lift the dough, roll up from the long side in a Swiss-roll style.

6. Wrap the rolls tightly in parchment paper and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

7. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut the roll into 1/2 slices with a thin and sharp knife, wiping the blade between each cut.

8.Place the slices on the prepared baking tray and bake for 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
