Where to find ingredients

- Gradually incorporate the peanut butter into the mixture, continuing to beat until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture out of the bowl into a larger mixing container.
- Slowly add the biscuit crumbs to the mixture, kneading by hand until all ingredients are fully integrated and the dough becomes pliable.
- Press the dough firmly into a baking dish or a shallow glass container.
- Place in the refrigerator to set overnight, or for a minimum of 8 hours, to ensure it firm enough to slice.
