\"Nabisco<\/a><\/p>\n

I consider myself a fairly sensible person. Rarely, if ever, would I find it acceptable to physically bust a move and moonwalk in a Safeway grocery store, much less break out in operatic chorus just to praise a prepackaged cookie. A fresh-baked cookie? Maybe it deserves a short interlude mumbled under my breath, but a prepackaged cookie is a different story entirely. My friends, that is just nonsensical.<\/p>\n

Yet that\u2019s exactly what I felt compelled to do after discovering the new Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cup Oreo cookies. Do I regret it? Abso-freaking-lutly. Would I do it again? You better believe it.<\/p>\n

I have a confession to make. I had somewhat given up on flavored Oreos. Last summer\u2019s <\/a>Strawberries \u2018n Cr\u00e8me and <\/a>Banana Split flavors pushed me to accept mediocrity on a three month limited edition release cycle, while recent shelf spotting of Watermelon and Fruit Punch have caused me to lose faith in Nabisco\u2019s strategic vision. I don\u2019t know about you, but when I sign up for a sandwich cookie\u2014Oreo or otherwise\u2014I\u2019m signing up for some variation of chocolate or vanilla. If I wanted Watermelon, dammit I would eat a freaking Watermelon.<\/p>\n

In any event, the news that Oreo had teamed up with Reese\u2019s to make the long overdue peanut butter and chocolate cr\u00e8me (excuse me, chocolate \u201cflavored\u201d cr\u00e8me) sandwich cookie rekindled a hope in me that Nabisco remembered they were in the business of making cookies and not flavored water enhancers. That hope was momentarily dashed when on their long awaited release date I checked no less than four grocery stores to no avail, only finally coming in contact with the Reese\u2019s Oreo cookies just as my blood sugar reached perilously low levels.<\/p>\n

You might have assumed this excitement was sure to leave me crashing in the unavoidable realization that the Reese\u2019s Oreo cookies couldn\u2019t possibly be as good as they\u2019d sound. You\u2019d be making an ass out of you and me, though, because Reese\u2019s Oreo are everything any tried and true Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cup lover would want. <\/p>\n

\"Nabisco<\/a><\/p>\n

The chocolate cr\u00e8me has a fudgy consistency tasting of more intense milk chocolaty flavor than standard chocolate Oreo cr\u00e8me, while the peanut butter has that trademarked salty and slightly gritty Reese\u2019s flavor that balances its darker counterpart so perfectly. Twisted from their bases, the cr\u00e8me fillings might be a disappointment, but when eaten together and in conjunction with the exceptionally crunchy cocoa wafer, the fillings transform into a taste which is unabashedly Reese\u2019s Cup in every sense of the title. Sweet and balanced with a deep, slightly salty flavor on the backend, there\u2019s multiple intensities of chocolate dancing harmoniously with the exceptional, but not overpowering, peanut butter flavor. It is, to use the most precise representation of the English language available to our understanding, quite delectable.<\/p>\n

\"Nabisco<\/a><\/p>\n

I suppose I could bemoan the filling\u2019s complete reluctance to twist cleanly, or its slightly askew orientation in between the wafers. But really, why draw attention away from the most excellent representation of a Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cup this side of a Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cup. Dare I say, the exceptional cocoa taste and trademark crunch of the cookie actually makes the Reese\u2019s Oreo superior to a Reese\u2019s Cup in some ways, providing a completely new and exciting textural component to a time-tested flavor. And you know what? That fact alone provides plenty of reason for even a sensible person to celebrate in the most obnoxious of ways.<\/p>\n
