Overview
First, the bad news: if you're not fond of peanut butter of you have an allergy (and therefore you've decided deep down in your stomach that it tastes awful), Krispy Kreme's latest batch of limited-time-only doughnuts definitely isn't for you. For everyone else, get ready to treat yourself to a dreamy mashup, because the fried pastry chain and Reese's have joined forces.
A couple of years back, gelato brand Gelatissimo scooped up Gelato made with Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. Now, it's Krispy Kreme's turn to give those American sweets the doughnut treatment. The three-option range does indeed go all in on peanut butter — two with chocolate, too, and one in a cheesecake variety.
If you opt for Krispy Kreme's peanut butter cheesecake made with Reese's doughnut — a mouthful to say and to eat — you'll be munching on the brand's original glazed doughnut, which has been dipped in white truffle, topped with peanuts and then given a Reese's Peanut Butter cream cheese frosting swirl.
As for the others, the Krispy Kreme Reese's Peanut Butter and choc doughnut takes the usual Krispy Kreme shell, fills it with Reese's Peanut Butter sauce, then dips it in chocolate ganache, and sprinkles on peanuts and Reese's Peanut Butter Chips.
Then there's the Krispy Kreme Peanut Butter choc brownie made with Reese's doughnut, which jams its shell with Reese's Peanut Butter and choc brownie butter, then gets plunged in milk chocolate ganache, and comes with Reese's Peanut Butter drizzle, choc crumbs and peanuts on top.
You'll find the first two varieties — the Krispy Kreme's peanut butter cheesecake made with Reese's doughnut and the Krispy Kreme Reese's Peanut Butter and choc doughnut — on sale from today, Tuesday, September 20, at all Krispy Kreme stores nationwide. The cost: $3.90 each and $29.90 for a dozen.
