Assemble parfaits by spooning 2 tablespoons of chilled pudding mixture into each of 4 parfait glasses or dessert dishes. Evenly distribute half of orange pieces over pudding, then spoon 2 tablespoons more of pudding mixture over orange pieces. Spoon 1 teaspoon peanut butter into center of each parfait.
