Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pre-made graham cracker pie crust
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter

  3. In a small bowl, beat egg yolks, then temper with a few spoonfuls of hot mixture before adding back to the pan. 
  4. Cook for 2–3 minutes more until smooth and creamy, then remove from heat and stir in peanut butter and vanilla.
