How to Make A McFlurry
Step By Step Instructions
- The first step is to crush the Oreos in a plastic bag with a rolling pin or potato masher on a flat surface.
- Blend ice cream and cool whip. This will help create a soft serve ice cream consistency.
- Add half and half slowly to loosen up the ice cream mixture.
- Add in the crushed Oreos.
- Pour into a medium glass or ice cream soda glass.
- Garnish with whipped cream and crushed cookies or a few mini Oreos.
Pro Tips and Timesaver Shortcuts
- A McDonalds McFlurry is made with soft-serve ice cream. This recipe simulates that by adding s little whole milk or cream to the mixture.
- To get a stronger vanilla flavor, you can add a few drops of vanilla extract to the ice cream.
- When crushing the cookies, tap the bagged cookies (rather than rolling) with a rolling pin to break them into smaller pieces.
Variations, Notes, and Substitutions
- You can substitute chocolate chip cookies for the Oreos.
- Substitute m&m candies for the Oreos is a yummy way to change it up.
- You can substitute crushed candy bars for original ice cream flavors.
- If you do not have heavy cream you can use full-fat milk in its place.
Serving and Storage Suggestions
- Serve with whipped cream and a cherry on top.
- You can freeze 16 oz glasses in the freezer for 20 minutes before hand to keep the frozen treat cold.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container.
