   and 1 tb of water in the top of a double boiler.  Cook over simmering

   from the heat and cool well. Meanwhile combine the peanut butter, 1/3
   cup of sugar, 3 tb of corn syrup, and 3 tb of water in a 2-qt
   saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar
   is dissolved and the mixture is well blended. Pour into a bowl and
   stir in the peanuts; cool. Beat the egg whites until foamy, using an
   electric mixer at high speed.  Gradually add 2 tb of sugar, 1 tb at a
   time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla and
   continue beating until stiff, glossy peaks form when the beaters are
   slowly lifted. Fold the egg white mixture into the whipped cream.
   Then fold in the peanut butter mixture.  Pour half of the peanut
   butter mixture into the peanut butter cookie crust.  Drizzle half of
   the chocolate mixture over the filling. Top with the remaining
   filling. Drizzle the remaining chocolate in parallel lines over the
   filling. Pull a knife across the lines at 1 inch intervals. Freeze
   until firm.
    Wrap securely in aluminum foil.  Return to the freezer and continue
   freezing 8 hours or overnight.
