[lace-chat] Reese's peanut butter cups
I haven't found them in Australia either, apparently you can get them in a store somewhere in Sydney, but it is a 2-3 hr drive from here for me with the traffic, so I have learned to make my own, melt some chocolate into one of those make at home chocolate trays, swirl it around, I do one cup at a time, when cool add peanut butter (I have peanuts ground fresh at the health food store so I don't get the sugar and salt - but for true authentic taste get the cheap peanut butter as it has lots of both) then I pour more melted chocolate on top. Pop the tray in the fridge then consume at will - not quite the same, but a reasonable substitute.

[lace-chat] Reese's peanut butter cups
I know that Woolworths in the UK has sold these things at some point, certainly when I was younger. At the time it was probably the only chocolate-y thing I didn't like :o) In London there's also a couple of shops that import American and Canadian foods so if you find one of the shops you should be able to buy the peanut butter cups there.

They're the only sweet thing I will eat willingly, probably because they also have so much salt in them. I don't have much of a sweet tooth and chocolate goes moldy around me. We also have the Reese's Pieces and something else that came to Israel recently. A friend described it as a chip version of the peanut butter cups. Carol, should I send you a care package? ;-) Avital, amazed to find something in Israel that's not in the UK, but my English DH says he's never seen Reese's there > From: Carol Adkinson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > I am just drooling, thinking of those lovely American chocolate sweets - > like a little cup of chocolate, and filled with peanut butter.

RE: [lace-chat] Reese's peanut butter cups
>not quite the same, but a reasonable substitute. The trick to make them taste more like a reeses is to add some peanut butter in with the melted chocolate. This changes the consistency slightly and makes the chocolate a bit softer like a reeses. There is a good recipe at http://www.topsecretrecipes.com/home.asp Then add 1/5th of the peanut butter mixture to the chocolate to make them perfect. Yum!

As I now can't have smarties (they are banned as a coeliac) I can have reece pieces which is something. And Jean, I've bought them in Woolworths in Tamworth before now!!!
