How to Make Peanut Butter And Pudding Pie
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake a 9-inch pie crust according to package directions or your favorite recipe. Let cool completely.
- In a double boiler, whisk together 2 ¼ cups milk and ¾ cup granulated sugar. Cook over simmering water, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves and mixture is warm.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together ¼ cup milk and ¼ cup cornstarch until smooth.
- Whisk in 2 large egg yolks and a pinch of salt to the milk/cornstarch mixture.
- Temper the egg yolk mixture by slowly whisking in a few tablespoons of the warm milk mixture from the double boiler. This prevents the eggs from scrambling.
- Gradually pour the tempered egg yolk mixture into the double boiler. Cook, stirring constantly, until the pudding comes to a boil and thickens (about 1 minute).
- Remove from heat. Stir in 4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until melted and smooth.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup creamy peanut butter and ½ cup powdered sugar until well blended.
- In a large bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add ¼ cup powdered sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.
- Divide the peanut butter mixture into three equal portions.
- Spread one-third of the peanut butter mixture evenly over the bottom of the cooled pie crust.
- Pour the cooled pudding over the peanut butter layer.
- Spread another third of the peanut butter mixture over the pudding.
- Top with the whipped cream.
- Spread the remaining peanut butter mixture over the whipped cream.
- Refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving to allow the pie to set completely.
