Costco’s New ‘Dangerously Good’ Snack Has Peanut Butter Lovers Racing to Stores

Apologies to all the people with peanut allergies out there, but there’s nothing quite as delicious as smooth, nutty peanut butter slathered on literally almost anything. It’s rich and fatty with a slight hint of salt, subtly sweet, and oh, so delicious. It's a unifying condiment that bridges the gap between sweet and savory, giving average one-note fare a bit more depth and mystery.

It’s both a spoonable eat-it-out-of-the-jar snack and a flavor enhancer that we’ll always have a love affair with. The only thing that could possibly make peanut butter better is enrobing it in chocolate, and for years, we’ve defaulted to Reese’s as the gold standard in the match made in heaven combo. That is, until now.

While there’s no denying the popularity of Reese’s, sometimes, it’s nice to deviate from the norm and grab something a little less full-commitment than a Reese’s cup. Sure, the mini cups are nice when you’re craving a little something sweet, but they don’t have the same “oomph” as their full-sized counterpart. Can you see the dilemma?

Fortunately, we may have found an answer to our problem (although it might make us reconsider our loyalty to Reese’s just a bi)t. The answer comes to us from behemoth peanut butter brand Skippy, and @costcohotfinds is sharing all the deets.

The undisputed Costco queen showed off sizable bags of Skippy Milk Chocolate PB Minis and peanut butter fans are locked in. These delicious individually wrapped treats feature Skippy’s signature creamy peanut butter coated in decadent milk chocolate with a final sprinkle of crispy wafer pieces that add some additional texture to the otherwise smooth and creamy treats. Each confection is about two bites, which is great if you just want a little taste—or terrible if you lack self-control around sweets like we do. No judgment if you eat the whole bag, though, bestie! You’re amongst friends here.

In terms of cost, the nearly 1-pound bag retails for a meager $9.89 and are have been spotted at Costco locations in the Midwest. Reviews in the comments ranged from “so yummy” to “dangerously good,” and one shopper even shared a hack to make them even better. “Try freezing them,” they said.

On that note, we’ve got a Costco run to make. See you there!
