While I described them as &#8220;marshmallows&#8221; above, they&#8217;re similar to the crunchy marbits you&#8217;d find in a cereal, and they&#8217;re a little bigger than the marshmallows you&#8217;d see in an instant hot cocoa packet. They may be small, but they do pack a sweet punch. And with their crunchiness, they are an excellent addition to the dessert.<\/p>\n<p>Bringing all the chocolate flavor are small dark pieces floating in the white frozen dairy. Even though Hershey&#8217;s has partnered with McDonald&#8217;s on the dessert, the bits didn&#8217;t instantly evoke thoughts of Hershey&#8217;s milk chocolate and its distinctive flavor. It tasted a little darker to me. Nevertheless, they added a choco flavor that was as sweet and tasty as the marshmallows. They also had a nice candy bar snap to them that complemented the crunchy marshmallows and creamy ice cream. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/mcdhersmomcflurry3.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-70444\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/mcdhersmomcflurry3.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/mcdhersmomcflurry3.jpeg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/mcdhersmomcflurry3.jpeg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/mcdhersmomcflurry3.jpeg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/mcdhersmomcflurry3.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Finally, we have the mostly crunchy graham crumbs, which I was concerned wouldn&#8217;t be noticeable, as many s&#8217;mores-flavored products struggle to convey the graham flavor effectively. But my first spoonful from the McFlurry allayed my fears. As Yoda once said, &#8220;The graham is strong with this one.&#8221; There were moments when I got more of a waffle cone flavor, but that is definitely not a complaint. Hey! I just came up with a brilliant idea. How about a s&#8217;mores treat that involves toasting marshmallows and dumping them into a waffle cone with some chocolate in it? Did I just invent something? (Searches internet) Nope. It&#8217;s been done many, many, many, many times.<\/p>\n<p>All together, the mix-ins and ice cream create a delicious treat that evokes the sweet campfire delicacy.
