We have had deep fried Reese’s at the county fair before, but I never realized how easy (and delicious) it could be to make a similar version at home.

This easy recipe also gives you an easy and delicious gooey dessert. YUM!

How to Choose an Air Fryer

If you haven’t yet purchased a hot air fryer, I recommend doing a bit of research as to which one to choose.

There are differences as to the quantity you can cook at once, how much counter space is needed for the airfryer, control panel options and, of course, price.

One of the most highly rated air fryers is the Ninja Air Fryer. It holds up well when comparing the food it cooks to traditionally deep-fried foods and it has a 4-quart ceramic-coated basket.

I have the PowerXL Vortex Air Fryer. I like that it cooks evenly, is easy to use AND easy to clean.

Also, I LOVE the bright red color! (It’s also available in black if red isn’t your thing.)

When you choose your air fryer, think about everything you want to cook in it. Consider the features and size you need, then read reviews on the model you’re considering before making your final purchase decision.

🧾 Ingredients Needed

• Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups – Freeze these before cooking so they don’t melt in the air fryer.
