peanut butter cup

Chocolate-wrapped spread treat

A peanut butter cup is a candy consisting of a peanut butter filling inside a chocolate shell, typically shaped as a small ridged cylinder.

Reese's dominates the category so thoroughly that the product name and brand are nearly synonymous: I grabbed a pack of peanut butter cups at checkout.
