Honey, I Shrunk the Reese’s: How to Fix Melted Peanut Butter Cups

They’re now perfect for your training bra!

I love playing jokes.

This year I spared all of you (you’re welcome!), but my real-life friends weren’t so lucky…

Yesterday, three friends came over for some homemade Vegan Reeses Cups.

I started by melting a frozen PMS Chocolate Bar into mini liners.

(You can use any chocolate bar.)

Instead of the usual peanut butter, I chose my favorite cashew butter.

The mini cups turned out incredible—truly amazing. They were so good I had to name them: mini cashew-butter 32-C cups.

For the recipe, see the original post: 32-C Chocolate Cups.

But what about the joke? Well, one of the mini cups was not filled with cashew butter.

There’s Mustard in my Reeses!

One friend was unlucky enough to bite into a mustard-filled mini Reeses. I did consider filling them all with mustard, but that would’ve been such a waste of chocolate. It was hilarious because she’s the kind of person who hates to offend anyone, so instead of spitting it out she tried to keep eating while hiding her reaction. After a few bites I had to tell her, and then we both couldn’t stop laughing.

Did you play any April Fools jokes?
Or did someone play one on you yesterday?

Usually I’m proud of being hard to trick on April Fools’ Day—my family’s pranks are over the top, so I’m skeptical. But yesterday I fell for nearly every joke I saw on Twitter, from “Paula Deen is a vegan!” to bloggers “moving” or “giving up blogging.” I fell for them all and was pretty embarrassed by it—laughing about it now.

Oh, and in case you missed it: I’m pregnant.
