Hi Nancy,
I am windy tonight. lol I enjoyed reading the Newsletter and I saw the request for Peanut Butter Pie, so I thought I would send one in. I also came across a cook book while searching through the books at the Goodwill. lol I love to go there and just browse. This book is titled "Best Recipes-From the backs of Boxes, Bottles, Cans and Jars" It has some old time favorites in it. So,
if anyone remembers a recipe that was on the back of something, just ask and I will see if it is in here.

Here is the recipe for Peanut Butter Cream Pie

Peanut Butter Cream Pie

3 egg yolks
3 cups milk
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup peanut butter (cruncy)
2 tsp. vanilla
1 baked pie shell
1 cup whipping cream (optional)
chopped peanuts

Combine egg yolks and milk in saucepan. Blend well, combine sugar, cornstarch and salt and stir into egg mixture, cook over low heat, stirring constantly until thick. (this will be quite thick and perhaps look lumpy) Pour hot filling into bowl and cover with wax paper. Chill, whip chilled mixture with electric mixer until creamy. Add Peanut Butter and vanilla, beating until smooth. Pour into baked pie shell and top with whipped cream or topping. Sprinkle chopped peanuts on top.

This is an old recipe given to me many years ago. I hope you enjoy it.
