Using clean dry beaters, beat cream with remaining 1/2 cup sugar and vanilla in medium bowl until peaks form. Stir 1/4 of cream into peanut butter mixture, then fold in remaining cream (mixture will be thick). Spoon into prepared crust. Refrigerate until firm.

Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cut into wedges to serve.
