Peanut Butter Cups

Peanut Butter Cups

EverydaySweetenedCaffeine

Peanut butter cups are a popular retail confection consisting of a chocolate shell filled with sweetened peanut butter paste. The combination creates a textural contrast between the crisp chocolate exterior and creamy, slightly grainy filling, with a characteristic balance of sweet and salty flavors. While providing quick energy from their high sugar and fat content, they contain trace caffeine from chocolate and are common sources of dairy and peanut allergens.
