If you're looking for a pie that actually has a notable p.b. flavor, try Peanut Butter Pie I. This one was a fine meringue but not what I was looking for. I baked in an Oreo crust.

When I was growing up, my father’s favorite pie was a peanut butter pie that he could only get at a restaurant someplace in Florida. This pie is exactly the same and it made him soooooo happy the first time I brought it over. Now he constantly calls me to ask me to make 2 pies, one for him and one for a neighbor. Thank you S_ST for helping me to make my difficult father so happy!! This pie is very easy to make, and I follow the directions exactly.

Very tasty! I love peanut butter, but I don't like peanut butter pies that have the cream cheese fluff. This pie has lots of peanut butter flavor without being too rich. I couldn't get the egg whites with sugar to form stiff peaks - they were more like marshmallow fluff, but it baked up fine. I'll definitely use this recipe again. I may recommend putting it in a chocolate crumb crust. I referred my mom to the recipe and she let me know that you can make the custard easily in the microwave. Just stir it after a minute or two until it's thickened. So much easier!

This recipe was a difficult one to rate. I had this last minute idea to make a peanut butter pie for my husband on Valentine's day and this was the only recipe I could find that I had all the ingredients for. We definitely enjoyed the pie, but it's definitely not a traditional peanut butter pie. I agree with other reviewers that this pie should be called something more like peanut butter custard pie. So, I'm not a huge custard fan and I'm not sure if I'd ever make this again. BUT, the pie did taste pretty good, especially the second day. If you like peanut butter and you like custard, then this pie is a winner.

I've made this recipe for years, but I only use 1/2 cup of confectioner's sugar on the bottom mixture. I use Cool Whip on the top, and sprinkle it with Peanut Butter/Confectioner's sugar mixture.

This pie is delicious, but most of my family complained that it was very rich, and a bit too sweet. No one cleaned their plate. My advice: Don't serve too big a piece as it is too rich to finish!

I made this pie for Thanksgiving. Everyone loved it! It had just enough of the peanut butter to give it great flavoring. My husband was expecting a lemony tasting pie because of the meringue, but was very pleased with the peanut butter taste. He asked me to make another one soon. The pie crust was a little soggy, though, and separated from the filling while cutting, but no one seemed to care.

My husband just raves over this! The only thing I do different is I use more egg whites and carefully fold some into the filling with no cream of tarter. Gives the filling a nice texture.

This was exactly what I was looking for!! Making this pie was also a lot easier than I thought it would be. The change I made was to omit the meringue for the top and used Dream Whip. If you're very careful to chill the pie (after adding filling) and the Dream Whip (after whipping according to box directions) completely before topping, the result is pretty appealing--especially if you're not great with meringue.

This is delicious as well as an attractive presentation. I want to try a whipped topping with it, and also maybe a crahm cracker crust, or oreo crust. This is a recipe you can do many different things with. If you haven't tried this, you must. We tried it while it was still a little warm, however the presentation is better once it has been chilled. It is delicious.

I'm not a big fan of peanut butter. There are a couple of local restaraunts, however, that offer delicious home-made peanut butter pies. But i have to admit that this one has them both beat. I'm not a professional baker but found this recipe extremely easy to do. It has a beautiful presentation and tastes best if left to chill at least 8 to 10 hours. Definately a must have for peanut butter lovers.

This is an awesome pie. It is requested everyplace I go. Add some butter to the topping and don't beat the egg white real still.
