I like the peanut butter rolled in white sugary stuff, I don't know what you call it and don't have a receipe for it but it sure is good.

PEANUT BUTTER PINWHEELS CANDY
1 box confectioners' sugar (plus a little extra) 1 stick softened butter 3 tbsp. milk 1 tsp. vanilla 8 oz. jar peanut butter
Mix ingredients except peanut butter together. Mixture should be stiff and dough like. Divide dough into four balls. Add different food colorings to each ball - 2-3 drops - mix. Roll each ball out to pie crust thinness between two sheets of wax paper. Use extra powdered sugar to keep dough from becoming sticky.
Melt peanut butter in microwave (or double boiler) to just runny - not real hot.
Spread a layer over rolled sugar dough. Roll dough up into a log. Refrigerate for about an hour and slice into 1/4 inch pinwheels. Keep refrigerated.
