Reese’s Is Selling a Gigantic Peanut Butter Cup for Thanksgiving — And It Deserves a Spot on Your Table
thekitchn ^

Posted on 11/16/2021 9:31:33 AM PST by mylife

With Thanksgiving just a little over a week away (where did this year go?) it’s time to start thinking about what foods will be gracing your dinner table (if you haven’t done so already!). On the dessert front, pumpkin, pecan, and apple pie are enduring staples, but Reese’s is making the case for peanut butter and chocolate.

The makers of the iconic peanut butter cup have supersized their OG creation into a 3.4-pound “pie” of solid peanut butter and chocolate. Naming it the Reese’s Thanksgiving Pie, this is the largest Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup ever made for sale and it’s only around for a limited time.

The 9-inch pie comes in a festive box adorned with leaves and includes the message “You can thank us later” on the opening flap while “Thankful yet?” can be found on the inside flap. The pie itself comes in a plastic dish that mimics the brown paper wrapping on a regular Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup and is sealed in plastic to ensure freshness. The Reese’s Thanksgiving Pie is most definitely made for sharing, and while the suggested serving size may only be 160 calories, there are about 48 servings per pie. If you can’t get through the entire pie this Thanksgiving though, don’t fret — it can be stored at room temperature and has a recommended shelf life of six months.

Yeah, homemade PB cups are really easy. I’ve done the normal candy size before. Chocolate line the form and chill. Filling is just peanut butter and sugar, then another chocolate layer and chill again.

What’s Reese’s politics? Who do they support?

That’s beautiful but overwhelming with that thick chocolate candy shell.
After a few bites, I’d put the rest in the fridge for late night nibbling.

If the dessert could be done as a Peanut Butter Cheesecake, with a very thin chocolate topping, maybe I could deal with that.

I never liked Reece’s Peanut Butter Cups.

I like Dairy Queen Ice Cream Cakes.

To each her own.

I’ve made peanut butter cups a number of times. Powdered sugar results in the same texture as in Reese’s

Nothing better than PB cups straight from the refrigerator. This is heaven for me.

Every Fortune 1000 company has embraced wokeism.
