If you’re a big fan of Reese’s candy, you might want to visit a local Krispy Kreme this week.

The doughnut maker on Monday announced a collaboration with Reese’s, makers of the popular peanut butter cups, on two treats available for a limited time.

The Reese’s Original Filled Chocolate Lovers Doughnut is a chocolate glazed doughnut filled with Reese’s Peanut Butter Kreme, said Krispy Kreme. It is dipped in chocolate fudge icing and adds peanut butter icing drizzle.

A peanut butter lover’s version of the doughnut is basically the opposite: filled with Chocolate Peanut Butter Kreme and dipped in Reese’s peanut butter icing.

The doughnuts are available individually or by the dozen. The chain is also offering them in a two-pack box similar to Reese’s packaging for its peanut butter cups.
