Peanut Butter-Banana Cream Pie


Ingredients
22 peanut butter sandwich cookies
1/2 cup lightly salted dry-roasted peanuts
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
2 cups half-and-half
4 large egg yolks
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract, divided
2 medium bananas
2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup powdered sugar
Garnishes: halved peanut butter sandwich cookies, chopped lightly salted dry-roasted peanuts





Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350°. Process cookies and peanuts in a food processor about 1 minute or until finely chopped. Stir together cookie mixture and melted butter. Press crumb mixture on bottom, up sides, and onto lip of a lightly greased 9-inch pie plate.

2. Bake at 350° for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Transfer to a wire rack, and cool completely (about 30 minutes).

3. Whisk together granulated sugar and cornstarch in a large, heavy saucepan. Whisk together half-and-half and egg yolks in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk half-and-half mixture into sugar mixture, and bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking constantly. Boil, whisking constantly, 1 minute; remove from heat.

4. Stir butter, peanut butter, and 1 tsp. vanilla into sugar mixture. Place heavy-duty plastic wrap directly on warm custard (to prevent a film from forming), and cool 30 minutes.

5. Cut bananas into 1/2-inch-thick slices; place in a single layer on bottom of crust, covering bottom completely. Spoon custard mixture over bananas; cover and chill 4 to 48 hours.

6. Beat cream at high speed with an electric mixer until foamy; gradually add powdered sugar and remaining 1 tsp. vanilla, beating until soft peaks form. Top pie with whipped cream mixture. Serve immediately, or chill up to 4 hours.
