If there’s one thing I love more than anything else, it’s the combination of peanut butter and chocolate. It’s not a unique point of view, I know so many of us salivate at this classic combination of salty and sweet.

In honor of my work in the kitchen, I have pulled together some of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup dessert recipes I have been using as inspiration.

They include the more traditional way of using the peanut butter cups in cakes, cookies, cupcakes and cheesecakes, but they’re also a number of unique ways to use the candy bars in popcorn, fudge, peanut butter cheese balls as well as combined with cookie dough and brownies. Can somebody say, “YUM”?
