Dear me, the news of the Krispy Kreme donuts hot dog was already giving us a heart attack. Now this? Introducing the Krispy Kreme Reese's Peanut Butter Cup doughnut.
Yes, really. They did that. The doughnut is chocolate glazed on top with a sprinkling of hazelnuts and peanut butter chips. Inside is a sugary peanut butter-flavored filling.
