Peanut butter is not the way to go about it unless you want to put on fat, especially dipping it in syrup on bread. This isn't the 70's and we know a lot more about nutrition now.
8 grams of protein per every 180 cals, and those 8 grams may not get used.
"Protein" isn't a single thing, so protein in peanut butter is not the same as protein in chicken. Well rounded amino acid profiles are what you need for building muscle, not some fat gainer that swells your face.
Aim for 1.5 grams of protein per pound of body fat, spread it out evenly through your meals (38 grams per meal in your case), lift heavy in the 12 rep range doing super sets, and save that syrupy peanut butter carb ball for right after your workout to give back to your muscles what was depleted in your workout.
