In a world where hundreds of candies can be bought for cheap at any supermarket, making sweets from scratch can be a hard sell. While some treats like caramels are indeed fussy, you can recreate one beloved candy using only chocolate and a jar of peanut butter. Easy two-ingredient peanut butter cups turn out so tasty that you may never buy them at the store again.

But it's not just us - Reese's is clearly getting into the spirit, too. The brand started rolling out its holiday candies, and this month, in addition to bringing back those beloved Christmas trees, it's also launching new Unwrapped Mini Trees. I rushed to three different grocery retailers before I could get my hands on a bright-orange bag. Here's how they compare to the O.G.

The Chocolove Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups feature 33% cocoa Belgian milk chocolate, which is Rainforest Alliance certified but does not deliver on flavor, leaving a bad impression due to a sharp, sour note.
