Slowly add all the ingredients little at a time - flour, milk, peanuts and mix as you go along, making sure to save 1 cup flour for the last hand mixing.

Prepare trays and make 7 logs from the mixture.

Brush with eggs at the end to get glaze.

Bake in 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 minutes, switching trays if making a large batch.
