As soon as McDonald’s released their newest Mcflurry flavor “the Strawberry shortcake McFlurry” I RAN! I ran, I tell you to try it and remake it for you.

I saw a ton of negative reviews about it and to be honest I think it could’ve been better. When you think Strawberry shortcake you want more buttery flavor and even more strawberry flavor and I think it was lacking that.

This is the best Mcdonald’s Strawberry Shortcake McFlurry recipe ever!

So I took it upon myself to recreate a better version of the strawberry shortcake by using golden Oreos to give it that shortcake, buttery, creamy flavor and added some Strawberry jello for the Strawberry flavor.

I think this is a very approachable recipe because for the most part, we all have all of the ingredients at home or can grab them at our nearest grocery store.

You 100% can! This would be so fun to make with lime, lemon, or even orange jello for a fun twist on this McFlurry recipe.

Strawberry shortcake crunch

How to store leftover strawberry crunch?

If you have any leftovers of the strawberry shortcake crunch you can store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

CAN YOU MAKE MCFLURRIES IN ADVANCE?

McFlurries are best made when youโ€™re ready to enjoy them. They are characterized by their soft serve texture that comes from adding a liquid and blending.

So if you freeze your McFlurry for too long before enjoying it will harden back up to ice cream and will lose that delicious texture.

So if you need to freeze your McFlurry for a few minutes before serving, go ahead. But I wouldnโ€™t recommend freezing it for longer than 20 minutes as it would throw off the texture.
