Firstly, I gotta give a million thanks to Pinkpau for having her friend brought a pack of heaven from the States for me. Ladies and Gentlemen, if you have never tasted this before, don’t. Once you go Reese’s, you’ll get hooked and live an agonizing rest-of-life here since they are not available locally.
this stuff is godsend
The Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups is actually made of only two simple ingredients, milk chocolates wrapping soft peanut butter in a “cup” shape. No tricks to it really. Somehow the combination tasted absolutely awesome, and at 110 calories a piece, a dieter’s nightmare (since you can easily have half a dozen in 10 mins.)
According to this wikipedia article, the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups were created by H. B. Reese in 1928 and own by the Hershey Company.
milk chocolate + peanut butter = tastebud pwnage!
Though these peanut butter cups were abit melted and slightly out of shape due to the Malaysian weather, they still tasted just as great as I remembered them. It was awesome. Thanks again Pinkpau!
Btw, anyone coming back to Malaysia from anywhere that sells this stuff, buy me a huge pack or three please!

That’s it. I’m raiding the chocolate shop in the KLCC tomorrow. And if I don’t find Reese’s there, there’s going to be hell to pay. *SNARL*

step 1:
hot toast
nutella (or some other equivalent)
chunky peanut butter
step 2:
combine using a butter knife while toast is still hot (so all the stuff melts and is extra gooey)
step 3:
eat and enjoy the elvish magic that makes it so tasty
step 4:
feel like a fat bastard

By Irene on Oct 14, 2006 | Reply
i think a friend from canada bought me those before.
addictive shit, and a Very Bad Thing for dieting people like me.
they really look bad in our hot weather though. melt peanut butter cups do not really look so appealing.
the taste is heaven, i agree. =)

stock gets replenished from time to time, ask the sales people. my hubby buys them by the 10s (bags) from klcc. another place i’ve seen it at klia departure hall, near the escalators to go down to passport control.

Yeah, those are addictive! I’ve had a packet of 2 regular cups from a swap with someone in the US, and another 2-cup packet (Double Chocolate – chocolate peanut butter) from another swap. And there’s a bite-size version of it that comes in the form of little balls. I prefer the bite-sized ones – can eat as many as I like without feeling too guilty. Because size smaller ma.
I’ve seen mini Reese’s cups sold in both KLIA and LCCT chocolatiers.

Hello from California. I’m also a Reese’s addict, but they are sold at all the grocery stores here, so I have to resist buying them whenever possible.
Yes, there is the normal sized reese’s cup, and then there is the miniature reese’s cup:

The minis have a different chocolate to peanut butter ratio, and in my opinion, are much better than the regular, full size cup. Also, I think melted reese’s don’t taste as good as unmelted. If you can get your hands on a bag of the minis, you must try them.
