We have had deep fried Reese's at the fair before, but I never realized how easy (and delicious) it could be to make a similar version at home.
Who would have thought you can make yummy dessert recipes in your air fryer? It is a total game-changer! While we love our oh so delicious Fried Macaroni and Cheese Bites made in the air fryer, these delicious Reese's pastries are over the top delicious!
But, before we get to the recipe AND if you absolutely love Reese's, then be sure and check out our easy Reese's Pieces Roll Ups! This recipe is made in your oven (but can be adapted for the air fryer). It's super yummy and only takes two ingredients, Crescent Rolls and Reese's Pieces. 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 just received the PowerXL Vortex Air Fryer. I haven't yet used it, but am excited to give it a try and let you know what I think.
I do see that it has great ratings and even without trying it yet, I LOVE the bright red color! (It's also available in black if red isn't your thing.)
I have personally used an Avalon Bay Air Fryer. While I liked the way it cooked the food, the handle on mine broke, making it hard to replace and remove the cooking basket.
I can't totally place the blame on the fryer as I may have helped contribute to it breaking – so I'm undecided on that point!
When you choose your air fryer, just think about the features and size you need, then read reviews on the model you're considering before making your final purchase decision.

What size reeses do you use in this recipe?
Chrysa says
We used the “snack size” which are .55 oz each, which are a bit smaller than the cups that come in the 2-packs as those are .75 oz each. That larger size will still fit in the crescent rolls and just be more filled.
VICKIE HEITMAN says
Those look so good!
Tammy Faucher says
I just made them and my oldest daughter’s first words to them was, “OMG!!!” and my middle daughter said they were a 10 out of 10. They are VERY sweet but good. The store was out of regular crescent rolls so I didn’t know how it would taste using the butter flavored ones but they even taste amazing…. I also used the regular sized peanut butter cups and it all worked out good and the taste was amazing!
Chrysa says
Oh, yay!! So glad to hear you all loved them!
Donna says
These look like the perfect treat to have when I’m craving something sweet! Yum!
Lee McCloud-Lazarick says
Definetly making these. Husband favorite candy!
Billy says
Can these be done in an oven ?
Chrysa says
You could definitely try that, but they would not get as crispy as in an air fryer. If you have a convection feature on your oven, I would try that.
