In the deliciously-awesome-nothing-can-compare department of the mysteriously perfect combination of peanut butter and chocolate that is the Reese's peanut butter cup, I have been doing much searching with no success. The peanut butter and chocolate combination does not exist in New Zealand. I have been making do with peanut butter and Nutella on toast, brownies and peanut butter icing and sometimes even just a spoonful or peanut butter straight from the jar followed by a spoonful of Nutella so you get both tastes.
Last week, Mark and I made one of my most favorite New Zealand discoveries: an imported candy store. That's right. An Imported Candy Store! Not only is it fantastic because it is a candy store... but one of their delicious imported treats is none other than the fantastic Reese's Peanut butter Cup. It is such fantastic news, I felt the need to dedicate a whole blog post to it, as it really is that big of an event in my life. I bought one small package containing two cups and after walking home quickly to prevent melting, I stuck the whole package into the freezer where it will reside until either 1) I give into its tempting call or 2) I have a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day - like Alexander for those of you who know children's literature.
