3 egg yolks (save whites for meringue)
1 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 cups milk
1/3 to 1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 prepared 9-inch pie shell
Beat the egg yolks with an electric mixer until thick and lemon colored. Combine sugar and cornstarch in a small bowl. Add to egg yolks and beat until creamy. Stir in milk and peanut butter. Transfer to top of double boiler or saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly until the pudding has thickened and the peanut butter has blended into the mixture. Stir in vanilla extract. Pour into the pie shell.
Meringue
3 egg whites
1 tablespoon water
