Tips:

  • For the best results, use a high-quality peanut butter. Look for a brand that is made with 100% peanuts and no added sugar or oil.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the sugar syrup by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the syrup forms a soft ball, it is ready.
  • Be careful not to overbeat the egg whites. If you overbeat them, they will become dry and stiff.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off.
  • Store the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set.
