Recipe by Lois Laing. Lois substituted the vegetable broth for the the beef stock called for in the original recipe. Giving credit where credit is due: "From Grandma's Kitchen by Marilyn Brass & Sheila Brass. This soup is good served hot or cold. The peanut butter adds richness to the soup, yet it is not readily identifiable upon tasting. This soup takes on a whole new personality when served cold.
