Ingredients to Make McDonald’s S’mores McFlurry Drink Recipe
The S’mores McFlurry is an easy homemade dessert-style beverage that does not require many ingredients. With just a small handful of items, you can recreate this frozen treat at home.
It doesn’t require anything complicated or hard to find, which is what makes it so fun and convenient to prepare. It’s yummy and easy to make.
To make the delicious McDonald’s S’mores McFlurry drink, you only need the following ingredients given below:
| Ingredient | Estimated Quantity |
|---|---|
| Vanilla Ice Cream | 2 to 3 cups |
| Milk or Water | ½ to ¾ cup |
| Graham Cracker Crumbs | 1 to 2 tablespoons |
| Mini Marshmallows or Marshmallow Fluff | 2 to 3 tablespoons |
| Milk Chocolate Chunks or Chocolate Chips | 2 tablespoons |
| Chocolate Syrup | 1 to 2 tablespoons |
| Whipped Cream | 2 to 4 tablespoons |
| Caramel Sauce (Optional) | 1 tablespoon |
| Extra Graham Cracker Crumbs for Topping | 1 tablespoon |
| Extra Mini Marshmallows for Topping | 1 tablespoon |
| Chocolate Drizzle | 1 tablespoon |
| Sugar (Optional) | 1 tablespoon |
| Oreo Cookies (Optional Variation) | 1 to 2 crushed cookies |
| Peanut Butter (Optional Variation) | 1 tablespoon |
| Strawberries (Optional Variation) | 2 to 4 sliced strawberries |
1 – Get Vanilla Ice Cream
Vanilla ice cream acts as the main base of this delicious beverage. A soft and slightly melted vanilla ice cream is the best option for this.
The reason for that is that it blends easily with all the toppings and tastes like food that one would be provided in heaven. The sweet vanilla flavor also balances perfectly with the chocolate and graham crackers.
You can also use the vanilla soft serve if you want; customizing the dessert to your liking is the ultimate goal.
2 – Get Graham Crackers
The Graham Crackers are one of the key ingredients of the McFlurry. This is because they recreate the exact and most authentic taste of the campfire s’mores.
The crunch and texture of the graham cracker bring everything together. It adds a crunchy, satisfying aspect to the McFlurry.
Only 1-2 tbsp graham cracker crumbs are needed. You can also use the crushed graham crackers instead of using crumbs.
3 – Get Marshmallows and Chocolate
You need 2-3 tbsp of the mini marshmallows or marshmallow fluff and 2 tbsp of milk chocolate chunks or chips. The best choice for this is Hershey’s chocolate.
Mini marshmallows add softness and sweetness to the Mcflurry, meanwhile the chocolate chunks bring a smooth cocoa flavor to the dessert.
When these are mixed with the yummy vanilla ice cream, they make the best homemade McDonald’s S’mores McFlurry.
4 – Include Extra Toppings
You can skip this step, but if you want to make the beverage amazing, you need to start adding extra toppings like whipped cream, extra graham cracker crumbs, chocolate drizzle, caramel sauce, or any kind of syrup. It all adds to its looks and taste.
Oreo cookies, peanut butter, or strawberries can also be added to create different flavor variations and make the McFlurry even more unique than it already is.
5 – Milk or Water
To make the drink, you have two options – Either add milk or water. If you are someone who want a nutritious beverage, opt for milk. Also, milk makes the drink thick. It is also more filling, and you might not need the need to eat afterwards.
If you want a light beverage, then go for water. Water is also hydrating, so it is a better choice in the summer.
McDonald’s S’mores McFlurry Drink Recipe – Easiest Steps
You only need to follow these simple step-by-step instructions, and you can make a homemade version of the McDonald’s McFlurry drink easily.
Here’s what you need to do:
Step 1 – Start the Prepping
Get all your ingredients, and make sure you have them in the right quantity and form, like if you don’t have marshmallow fluff, microwave some marshmallows.
Take the vanilla ice cream out of the freezer for around 5 minutes so it softens up a little. This helps everything blend together more smoothly and gives the McFlurry that creamy texture.
Prepping is a really important step as it helps to ensure you have all the items ready.
Step 2 – Combine The Ingredients
Now it’s time to combine the items. Take a chilled mixing bowl, and add vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup to a bowl.
Mix in the items and stir gently so the ice cream stays thick and fluffy. Be careful not to mix the ice cream too much.
Here’s how it will look like in this step:
The goal is to keep the McFlurry fluffy thick instead of turning it into a thin, runny milkshake. Once everything looks smooth, your base is ready for the next step.
Step 3 – Put in Toppings
Pour your McFlurry base into your serving cup or bowl. Add some additional toppings on top if you like. You can include some more chocolate syrup on top without overdoing it too much. You don’t want to ruin the flavor with excessive syrup.
Once you are done with the pouring of syrup, top the McFlurry off with whipped cream, some extra graham cracker crumbs, and mini marshmallows.
McDonald’s S’mores McFlurry drink recipe step 3 will look like at the end:
Step 4 – Freeze the dessert
If you want the McFlurry to be just like the McDonald’s one, you need to freeze the McFlurry for at least 15 minutes; don’t put it in the freezer for too long.
Only putting it in the freezer for 15 minutes tops will make it firmer without making it like a solid block of ice cream.
Step 5: Pour Milk or Water in a Glass
In a glass, pour water or milk (it depends on you). You can also add a tablespoon of sugar to make it sweet. I personally love milk in this S’mores McFlurry drink recipe. It makes it thick, creamy, and overall better.
Step 6: Add S’mores McFlurry to the Glass and Serve
Lastly, add frozen S’mores McFlurry to the milk and then serve immediately. If you don’t serve it straight away, the McFlurry will start to melt and it might affect the taste.
If you want, you can sprinkle some chocolate chips on top of it. If you are watching your calorie intake, then I suggest you do this carefully.
Here’s what the final product of the McDonald’s S’mores McFlurry Drink Recipe look like:
What Does the McDonald’s S’mores McFlurry Drink Taste Like
The McFlurry tastes like the classic campfire s’mores. As it has vanilla ice cream added to it, it gives the McFlurry a sweet and creamy foundation. Many people often say that the marshmallows have a crunch similar to the taste of instant hot cocoa.
It’s completely different from the Dutch Bros Rebel drink, which is fruity and fizzy.
What Can You Have it With McDonald’s S’mores McFlurry
A McFlurry is already a complete dessert-style drink on its own, but it can also be paired with other foods and customized in many fun ways.
You can enjoy it with a lot of fast food meals like fries or burgers. It also goes great with desserts like brownies, cookies, or waffles if you want something more filling and sweet.
You can also have a Dunkin’ Cookie Dough Latte if you are a coffee lover.
Conclusion
The McDonald’s S’mores McFlurry drink is a sweet, dessert-style beverage that I make at home. It is inspired by the McDonald’s dessert, and you can make this drink at home easily. You need a few ingredients that include vanilla ice cream, graham crackers, milk, chocolate, marshmallow, etc.
To make the actual McFlurry, you need to prep, then take the ingredients and put them in a bowl, mix the McFlurry with a hand mixer yourself, and then add additional toppings, freeze the McFlurry, mix it with milk, and enjoy it.
