our February review<\/a> requesting this addition?).<\/p>\nI swung into the McDonald\u2019s drive-thru and was told to wait five minutes for some fresh sticks. Usually, I\u2019d grumble a little about the wait, but in this instance, I wasn\u2019t upset since the result would be impeccably fresh ones, which I figure is the best way to enjoy them.<\/p>\n
McDonald’s Donut Sticks with Chocolate Sauce are available in a six or 12 pack and only during breakfast hours. I\u2019m not sure if you get double the chocolate sauce with 12, but it\u2019s probably worth asking for. I went with the six-pack for $1.59.<\/p>\n

They look the same as the ones from earlier this year. They’re incredibly light, super flaky, and very fragrant of cinnamon and donutty goodness. I would almost call these “cronut sticks,” but they lack a few pastry layers to qualify fully. My car began smelling like a donut shop almost immediately after I\u2019d received the bag. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s talk about this chocolate sauce. This sauce is thicc. It’s also smooth, sticky, rich in chocolate color, and it adhered well to the donut sticks. I did find I needed to be careful, as some of the pieces were a little too fragile and would sort of collapse from the pressure of the \u201cscoop.\u201d But a generic dip was quite successful.<\/p>\n
The sauce tastes exactly like the hot fudge topping on McDonald’s soft serve sundae and comes in packaging similar to McNugget dipping sauces (careful not to mix those up, although honey could be an interesting adventure for these donut sticks. OOH! Or Hot Honey! Okay, I digress.)<\/p>\n
Overall, the chocolate is a welcomed addition to the already delightful donut sticks. It\u2019s not overpowering, and there was enough sauce in the container to dip my way through all six pieces. The chocolate doesn\u2019t take this treat to an overly luscious place, but it certainly elevates the regular sticks.<\/p>\n
