This is an excellent peanut butter pie recipe. My grandmother requested it many years ago from a restaurant that served it. Everyone who has had this pie loves it. Ingredients:
1 (9 inch) pie shell, baked |
1 cup confectioners' sugar |
1/2 cup peanut butter |
2 cups milk |
2/3 cup white sugar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
4 tablespoons cornstarch |
3 eggs, separated |
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar |
6 tablespoons white sugar |
Directions:
1. Mix confectioners' sugar and peanut butter until mixture has a crumbly texture. Sprinkle half over the bottom of the shell. 2. In the top of a double boiler, combine milk, 2/3 cup sugar, salt, vanilla, cornstarch, and egg yolks. Cook over medium-low heat until thick. Pour filling into crust. 3. Beat egg whites until foamy. Add cream of tartar, and continue beating. Gradually add 6 tablespoons sugar, and continue beating until stiff peaks form. Spread over the top of the pie. Sprinkle with remaining peanut butter mixture. 4. Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 30 minutes. |
