A thousand times better than the peanut flavoured powder that they put into Reese’s cups. What the fuck even is that shit?
We have Reese's peanut butter cups at home:

Redneck trick for ya, but seriously try this…
You want Reese’s flavored ‘peanut butter’, well mix about 50/50 peanut butter and sugar.
Try it, that’s more or less all it basically is, and tastes damn near identical. Also probably less cancer causing preservatives.
Chocolate is all up to you though… 🤷♂️

How redneck we getting? Mix lots of sugar with a tiny bit of water, then microwave it in 10 second bursts until it starts to turn a darker brown, then mix in a spoonful of peanut butter. Keep mixing and folding until you start to see strands, then stop. Top with Nutella and refrigerate.
Now you’ve made the Butterfingers you never knew you needed.

I would use powdered sugar if that’s the route you want to go. I was making buckeyes and tasted them before the chocolate dip and thought “hey, that’s familiar…”

White choco coukd be interesting
Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 months ago
that isnt really peanut butter, its sugar goop with som peanut butter. an instore brand is equally discussing. i like the cups that are solid chocolate, or somehting like almond or sunflower.
WanderWisley@lemmy.world 2 months ago
NGL that would taste better than anything Reese’s makes now.

If you ever had real peanut butter you’d realize how absolute shit that stuff is.

Nice! I’m not the only one!

Yes, but Skippy > Jif bruh. What are you, some kinda animal? SMH
kahjtheundedicated@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Both don’t stand a chance against Teddie. The only ingredients that should be in peanut butter are peanuts, and maybe salt
Grostleton@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 months ago
Nah dog sorry but that natural shit tastes like ass and is a bitch to stir every time. If I want to be healthier or get actual peanut flavor I’ll eat some peanuts, PB is purely for pleasure.

I’m not familiar with that specific brand but there are a few others that are, like you said, just peanuts and salt. I thought that I didn’t really like peanut butter until I tried one of them - so much better!

Crunchy or creamy tho?
Grostleton@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 months ago
I love me some creamy nut butter
fartographer@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Yes, peanut butter
The_Lurker@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Laura Scudders natural peanut butter. It’s not an unholy emulsion of high fructose corn syrup and “natural” flavors. JIF, Skippy, and Peter Pan are the Wonder Bread and Velveeta of peanut butter.
ikidd@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 months ago
Add Kraft to that list. I used to eat that stuff all the time as a kid, then I started to eat natural peanut butter and couldn’t stomach that other garbage anymore. And if you buy the good stuff by the tub, it’s cheaper, you just have to mix it.

Cup? That’s clearly a spoon! Reese’s peanut butter spoon.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 months ago
I do this all the time! It’s one of my favorite snacks, except I use mini dark chocolate chips.
tamal3@lemmy.world 2 months ago
But it’s so liquidy it doesn’t stay on the spoon
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 months ago
Ah! I know what you mean. I’ve bought it a 1000 times, and it was great, but a few jars ago, I got a jar that was far softer. Not exactly liquid, but it was thinner than usual. I didn’t have any problems keeping it on the spoon, and I ate it anyway.
That’s not normal, though, and subsequent jars have been fine.

I do the same with 90% dark and natural PB (no palm oil). It is delicious.
Emerald@lemmy.world 2 months ago
My issue is that no stores near me have natural peanut butter that isn’t organic so the stuff with more processing ends up costing more money.

If you actually want peanut butter cups at home
db2@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I don’t even like Reese’s cups but what’s on that spoon only shares the ingredient names, I’d eat that happily.
RoidingOldMan@lemmy.world 2 months ago
You upgraded both the quality of the chocolate and the quality of the peanut butter.

Let’s not give them too many points here for the peanut flavored vegetable shortening spread.
