THE BEST CHOCOLATE/PEANUT BUTTER
CREAM PIE
 
1 1/3 c. sugar
2 1/2 tbsp. cornstarch
1 tbsp. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
3 eggs
3 c. milk
1/2 c. butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1/3 c. peanut butter (crunchy or smooth)

Use whisk to stir dry ingredients. Then add 3 egg yolks plus 1 cup milk and whisk until smooth. Then add other 2 cups of milk and whisk until smooth. Cook in microwave for about 7 minutes until thickened. Stir a couple of times while it is cooking to maintain smoothness. Remove from microwave and add butter and vanilla. Stir until butter is melted, then add peanut butter and stir until smooth. Put in baked 9 inch pie shell. Use egg whites to make meringue adding 1 tablespoon sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla. Put on top of filling and bake until golden brown in 400 degree oven.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
