Thanksgiving is almost here and Americans stressed about what to serve for dessert will now have a 3-pound option to consider.
The Hershey Company announced Monday, Nov. 9 the Reese's brand is bringing back its supersized Reese's Pie this Thanksgiving. The peanut butter cup pie, first introduced in 2021 as a limited time offering, is comprised of over three pounds of the candy's iconic chocolate and peanut butter, according to Hershey.
While the Reese's Pie looks like a traditional pie, it lacks a baked crust and traditional pie filling and instead is more of a giant Reese's peanut butter cup in pie form, according to the chocolate company. It measures over nine inches in diameter.
“The overwhelming response to our original Reese’s Pie proved that
a fresh take on a holiday classic can create something truly special," said Samantha Siegal, senior director of marketing for Reese's at Hershey, in a news release. "Its return reflects what Reese’s does best: bringing chocolate and peanut butter together in unexpected ways and giving fans a new tradition worth celebrating."
How to get your Reese's Pie this Thanksgiving
The pie will be available at shop.hersheys.com/reesespie.html starting Nov. 16 at 9 a.m. ET, while supplies last. The pies will cost $49.99 and there is a limit of two per order, according to Hershey. The pies will be available on a first-come, first-served basis and fans can join a waitlist now to receive a reminder ahead of the Nov. 16 online launch.
The pies will also be available in limited quantities at select club locations, Hershey said in a news release.
The company recommends storing the pie in a cool, dry place at room temperature, away from eat and direct sunlight. Hershey says refrigeration is not necessary, but if refrigerated, consumers should allow the pie to come toward room temperature before cutting and serving for best texture.
