The peanut butter in the pie does not overwhelm (there is only 1/2 cup).  I’d say it merely just helps create a beautiful texture for the pie.  The PB makes it unique for sure– because who puts peanut butter in pie?!

There’s a good amount of booze in the pie (whiskey!), so if you’re not into booze… I’d add in a tablespoon of vanilla instead and call it a day.  Or reducing the whiskey to 2 tablespoons would be fine too.
