Spiced Peanut Butter

Most people just eat their peanut butter as is.  Not me.  I remember way back when somebody made a peanut butter with cinnamon swirls.  It never really caught on.  Here's what I do:

To an 18 oz jar of that runny natural smooth peanut butter (Adam's) I add:

Cayenne red pepper 1/4 t.
turmeric 2 t.
cumin 1 t.
coriander 1/4 t.
cardamom 1/4 t.

You could just add 3 t. of curry from the curry tin, but you don't know what you're getting and every brand has a different mix of spices in their curry.  I suggest halving the red pepper unless you already know how much heat (Scoville units?) you want in your peanut butter.
