Good Humor's Reese's Peanut Butter Ice Cream Cups are pretty new to the frozen food aisle of the supermarket. Each "ice cream cup" features peanut butter ice cream swirled with Reese's trademark peanut butter and then dipped in a milk chocolate flavored coating.

19.8 fl oz box of six 3.3 fl oz bars retails at $4.29 at my local Ralph's supermarket, but my box was free courtesy of Unilever (the owner of Good Humor brand and world's largest ice cream producer)
As a lover of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, I was pretty excited to try these and I was not disappointed.
The thin, fragile chocolaty shell easily gives way to the creamy peanut butter ice cream inside. Oddly, the shell is thinner (or at least feels thinner) than the shell on a regular Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, even as the ice cream bar is bigger.
What really makes the ice cream bar is a thin swirl of Reese's peanut butter that rings the ice cream from start to finish. The peanut butter ice cream has a nice flavor to it, but it's the swirl that really brings the taste and texture of a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. I really enjoyed it.
That being said, I'm not sure if you'll enjoy it. I had my brother, his wife, and The Sister sample the bar as well. And, out of the three, only my brother liked it. The Sister, who also loves Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, thought it had that Reese's peanut butter flavor but still did not care for it.
I still think Good Humor Reese's Peanut Butter Ice Cream Cups warrant a try from any fans of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups that are looking for that familiar Reese' Peanut Butter Cup taste but in a cool ice cream form.
