— January 25, 2022 — Lifestyle
The McDonald's Peanut Butter Crunch McFlurry is being made available by the brand at select locations to offer patrons with a way to satisfy their craving for an ice cream-based treat that doesn't hold back when it comes to interesting texture.

The frozen treat is achieved with a base of the brand's signature vanilla soft serve that is blended with a mixture of peanuts, chocolate and cookies. What's created with the frozen treat is a premium flavor profile that doesn't skimp on texture to give it almost a candy bar-inspired experience that's perfect for avid chocolate and peanut butter fans.

The McDonald's Peanut Butter Crunch McFlurry is priced at $3.59 and is presently being made available at locations in Pasadena, California but could be showing up at additional locations.
