Spread vanilla ice cream evenly in pie crust, smoothing top; freeze 30 minutes. In glass container in microwave oven or in small saucepan over low heat, melt peanut butter until smooth and spreadable; spread over vanilla ice cream. Freeze 30 minutes or until hardened.

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