Peanut Butter Pie V

This is an adopted recipe, but it is just like the recipe my mother used for years. Hope you all enjoy. You can use smooth or chunky peanut butter, and it will make either one large deep dish pie or two shallow pies. Cook time is if you use a baked pie crust, otherwise the only time you need to allow is at least 2 hours of chill time.
