Again I'm trying another Reese's candy bar. I'm not sure why. I think Reese's cups are pretty darn close to candy perfection. The Nutrageous bar adds whole nuts and caramel to that.

The bar, as the photo shows, is a center of peanut butter (which is more crumbly than creamy), which has a caramel stripe under it, then the whole thing is rolled in nuts and covered in milk chocolate. It's a really satisfying, meaty bar. Not too sweet, a good hint of salt to it and some good textures. I don't know why I haven't tried this bar sooner. I prefer it far and away over a Snickers bar, which is a little too sticky sweet for me.

It's still not a "go to" bar for me. I'll still pick up a packet of Reese's cups before this, unless I was really looking for a calorie charge with more protein in it. (Reese's cups has 4 grams of protein, the Nutrageous has 6 grams.)
