This spring, Reese's unveiled two new kinds of peanut butter cups that offer different ratios of peanut butter and chocolate, specifically introducing the Chocolate Lovers Cup and the Peanut Butter Lovers Cup—and now, Krispy Kreme is also introducing a peanut butter-filled donut based on this theme. In fact, the Reese’s Original Filled Peanut Butter Lovers Doughnut from Krispy Kreme is just one of the new treats to enjoy alongside the Reese’s Original Filled Chocolate Lovers Doughnut. No matter whether one prefers peanut butter or chocolate more, these new donuts are sure to satisfy a sweet tooth.
Since Krispy Kreme introduced its Original Filled Doughnuts, it has been experimenting with unique fillings such as cake batter, cream, chocolate and in some Asian markets, a salty egg filling.
