1 baked pastry shell

4 eggs, 3/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup corn starch, 3 cups milk, 1 tbsp butter, 1.5 tsp vanilla, 1/4 cup peanut butter
combine sugar and corn starch, gradually stir in 2 cups milk. Separate eggs and mix four *yolks* into remaining cup of milk. Stir into sugar/cs/milk. Cook and stir over medium heat till thickened and bubbly. Cook and stri for 2 mintues more. Stir in butter, vanilla, and pb till melted. Pour into pie crust and keep warm. Prepare meringue as follows:
4 egg whites, 1 tsp vanilla, 1/2 tsp cream of tartar, and 1/2 cup sugar. Combine egg whites, vanilla, and cream of tartar in a large mixing bowl. Beath with an electric mixer on medium for 1 mintue or till soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, 1 tbsp at a time, beating on high spead for about 4 more minutes or till stiff glossy peaks form and sugar dissolves.
