Reese's Peanut Butter Cup with Pretzels

[cineater]

Not enough salt on the pretzels to make it sweet and salty.  Not that I wanted a soggy pretzel but it's really crunchy when you do get a pretzel piece. 

This is not an improvement on the Peanut Butter cup if you ask me.  I'm wondering who thought we could love these more anyway.

Coke and pretzels if you want sweet and salty.  Not chocolate and peanut butter.

I agree with both assessments.  The prepackaged versions just....aren't great.

So...here's the right way to do it:

Preheat your oven on 250 F/ 120C

Lay out a layer of pretzel minis on a baking sheet.

put one mini peanut butter cup on each pretzel (I prefer the dark chocolate ones).

Put in the oven for literally a minute or two, til the cups get melty.

Take em out of the oven to cool. If you're feeling super fancy, while they're still a bit melty, you can push a reeces pieces into each peanut butter cup.  I'd leave them for at least 30 minutes (still a bit melty) but if you really want them to set, give them an hour or so (like they'll last that long on the counter...LOL).

Trust me, these things are like crack

I'm just going to blame this sudden urge for chocolate on GNR.  They're starting the tour in Hershey!  I could be in real trouble if someday they decide to start it in Lynchburg, Tennessee.   

Kit Kat Key Lime Pie.  This is pretty good.  I'm a lime junkie to begin with.  Tastes just like Key Lime.  Hurry, limited edition.

I just hope you all use Reese Cups for making s’mores

Never though of that but I do occasionally like hot peanut butter.  I do have the skill for roasting the perfect marshmallow.

Halloween candy is out.  I can buy a whole bag of Peanut Butter cups for almost the same price as two, two packs.  The great thing about that is I save money and it's way too early to buy Halloween candy so I'll just have to eat the whole bag.

They have peanut butter cups with green bottoms for Halloween.  Not sure if it's suppose to have a minty taste, might have covid, but I didn't taste it and I sampled a whole bag.     I blame GNR, it was a long show.

I have had the covered pretzels and I think they are fantastic!

The Reese's float in the Rose Parade was a little scary.  The Fighting Cuppie looks like something you need to call the Ghostbusters for.
