Peanut Butter Pie
Ingredients
1 9-inch deep dish pie shell, baked
3/4 cup granulated sugar
4 tablespoons Cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups milk
4 egg yolks, slightly beaten
4 tablespoons margarine or butter, softened
3/4 cup peanut butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
Combine sugar, Cornstarch and salt in a heavy saucepan; stir together
with a wire whisk until thoroughly mixed. Continue to whisk, adding the
milk by droplets at first, then in a continuous stream. Whisk in egg
yolks, stirring vigorously until blended.
Over medium heat, cook the mixture, stirring constantly until it boils.
When the mixture reaches a full boil, reduce heat to low and continue
cooking and stirring for 3 minutes. Remove mixture from heat; beat in
margarine or butter, peanut butter and vanilla.
Cover the entire surface of the pudding with plastic wrap and allow to
cool for 15 minutes. Stir well and pour into baked pie shell. Best
served at room temperature, but can be chilled in refrigerator if
desired.
