General Mills could\u2019ve just pulled the chocolate pieces from its regular Reese\u2019s Puffs, brushed off the cereal dust from its hands, and offered the tan peanut butter pieces as a brand new product, but it didn\u2019t. There seems to be a thin peanut buttery coating that gives the puffs an added oomph of nutty goodness, and oh my goodness, that makes a difference.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/reesepufpblovecer3.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-60121\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/reesepufpblovecer3.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/reesepufpblovecer3.jpeg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/reesepufpblovecer3.jpeg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/reesepufpblovecer3.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>They have a strong peanut butter taste but without the jaw-slowing texture of the spread. And that flavor shined whether I ate it dry from my hands or in milk from my hands. I think the coating will also help the pieces stay crunchy in milk for a bit longer. I wrote \u201cI think\u201d because this cereal is so good that my taste buds won\u2019t let it stay in milk for long. The dairy (or non-dairy) at the bottom of the bowl does have a slightly nutty flavor. It might&#8217;ve had a more robust flavor if the cereal was allowed to soak a little longer, but, again, my taste buds won\u2019t allow that.<\/p>\n<p>Peanut Butter Lovers Cereal should be a permanent member of the Reese\u2019s Puffs line. But if not, it\u2019s so tasty that I\u2019d love to see it come back yearly in the same seasonal shapes as the original Reese\u2019s Puffs \u2014 Bunnies, Hearts, and Bats.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DISCLOSURE:<\/strong> I received a free product sample from General Mills.
