Peanut Butter Cream Pie Method
Mix together the peanut butter
and powdered sugar until the mixture is crumbly and then set
it aside. Combine together in a large heavy saucepan 2/3 cup
sugar and 2 cups of milk then heat until bubbles start to
come on the bottom, make sure it does not boil. Next in a
medium bowl beat the egg yolks till mixed, then blend in flour,
salt and 3 tablespoons of cornstarch. Stir this mixture to
a paste. Beat in the remaining cup of milk, beat until the
mixture is smooth. Stir in the hot milk to combine. Add the
mixture in the bowl to the milk mixture in the saucepan and
cook over medium low heat stirring constantly until there
is bubbles in the centre. Now at this point add the teaspoon
of vanilla and the butter.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In the bottom of the cooled pastry shell sprinkle 2/3 of the
crumbly peanut butter mixture. Add the cooled custard mixture
over the top of the crumbly mixture. Place the egg whites,
remaining teaspoon of vanilla and cream of tartar in a large
mixer bowl. Beat this mixture until stiff peaks form then
while beating gradually add the 4 tablespoons of the remaining
sugar and 3 tablespoons of remaining cornstarch. Continue
beating this mixture until whites are really thick and glossy.
Tip this mixture on top of the pie and spread it all over
the top then sprinkle the rest of the peanut butter mixture
over the top of it. Bake the Amish Peanut Butter Cream Pie
for 10 to 15 minutes . Keep a close eye on the pie until the
meringue is golden brown and then take it out of the oven
and leave to cool.
