Preparation

Step 1

Beat butter with powdered sugar for about 3 minutes. Beat in flour, salt and peanut butter. Mixture will be crumbly. Add in milk and mix with hands. Dump mixture (will still be slightly crumbly) and knead dough together on a piece of parchment paper. Press into a 12x10 rectangle. Slide parchment paper onto a large baking sheet. Press the candies into the top of the dough.
Bake in a 350 degree oven for 20-25 minutes. Cut immediately and allow to cool. Separate and store in air tight container. ENJOY.
