4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

2/3 cup creamy peanut butter
8 Tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar

Cream peanut butter and butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on high speed.  On low speed, mix in sugar until combined, then beat mixture on high speed until fluffy and smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add salt to taste, if desired.  Use immediately.
 

The recipe says "best if eaten the same day" but we have found it OK to keep in the refrigerator.  We have also tried to freeze and have had no problem.

Good Luck.

Yeast-Rising Thick Pizza Crust

This is it, the yeast-rising thick pizza crust you've been hungering for. This is simple to make, freezes well and will fool your friends into thinking they are eating pizza with a wheat crust.

2 cups rice flour
2 cups tapioca flour
2/3 cup milk powder or nondairy substitute
3 1/2 teaspoons xanthan gum
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons pizza seasoning (optional)
2 tablespoons dry yeast granules
1 cup lukewarm water (105 to 115 degrees)
1 tablespoon sugar
3 tablespoons shortening
1/2 cup hot water
4 egg whites, at room temperature

In the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer, put flours, milk, xanthan gum and salt. Dissolve the yeast in the lukewarm water with the tablespoon of sugar added. Melt the shortening in the hot water.
With the mixer on low, blend the dry ingredients adding the seasoning, if desired. Pour in the hot water and shortening, blending to mix. Add the egg whites, Blend again, Then add the yeast mixture. Beat on high for 4 minutes.
Spoon half the dough onto a greased cookie sheet or round pizza tin. With your hand in a plastic bag, pat the dough out in a circle about 1/4 inch thick except at the edges, which should be higher to contain the sauce and fillings. Repeat with the second half of the dough.
Let rise 10 minutes then bake in preheated oven at 400 degrees for 5 to 7 minutes before spreading with your sauce and favorite topping. Bake 20 to 22 minutes more. Makes two 12 1/2 inch pizzas.

Grate the cheese. Any hard cheese will work, from cheddar to Edam. Set aside

Place butter in the bowl of a mixer and beat until creamy. Add egg, salt, and pepper. Beat in the cheese, a third at a time until combined. Mix in flours and xanthan gum until well blended. Work the dough into a ball. Do not use any water to reduce stickiness.

Divide dough, rolling pieces between sheets of waxed paper or parchment paper. Placed on a greased cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining dough. Score the crackers and prick with a fork. Lightly salt the crackers. Bake for 5 to 6 minutes at 350 degrees. Turn oven to 250 degrees and cook until crisp about 30 minutes. Let cool on sheet. Store in an airtight container.
