I tried Peanut Butter Cups once when a friend from Texas sent them to my daughter. Way too sweet chocolate and the filling was so far removed from peanut butter I couldn’t swallow the first bite.Ugh!

I live in Spain where Reese’s have yet to make an appearance. But I got done! I paid £1.50 for my pack of three - didn’t occur to me that they were more common now. Next time I’ll just go to Woolworths. Actually, I’ll try to find Oliver’s recipe first. :)

mmm peanut butter cups. white peanut butter cups are good too. but whats even better is hersheys take 5 and fast break. lots of stuff in them that is supposed to be peanut butter but deep inside i know it is not, still they are so good.

Shakeaway also sell Reese’s and Oreo and I think Hershey bars. To be honest, they’re (Reese’s / Oreo / Hershey) quite widespread over the UK now.

Sylvia.. that’s the point. At least, I think that was my point. It’s not that I actually like them, it’s just the childhood memories the conjure up. :)

Try Woolworths (if you are in the UK?) - They again sell them in packs of three, but at 49p (or, just under $1) a pack.

Also I found a wonderful recipe somewhere, I think it was one of Nigella’s, on how to make nice peanut butter cup type things. YOu add butter, brown sugar, all sorts of stuff to the PB, but it ends up with a very reese-like texture. And you dont need to get a bag of emulsifiers, since this isn’t intended to stay on the shelf for a year!

Reeses are too sweet for you but butterscotch Life Savers aren’t? You are weird!

Hmmm, that’s interesting.

I hate Peanut Butter Cups. Way too sweet for me. But there are still things that bring memories of living in the US flooding back for me. Like Butterscotch Life Savers and Kool Aid.
