McDonald’s is ready to extend its McFlurry line-up as the chain unveils the New Peanut Butter Crunch McFlurry. First tested in select California stores in 2022, the new dessert has finally received the green signal and will be hitting stores across the United States on August 9, 2023.

Loaded with the goodness of Chocolate pieces and Peanut Butter cookies, the new McFlurry will be available at all participating locations for a limited time. Once launched, the upcoming dessert can be ordered at the nearest McDonald’s restaurant or through the chain's app or website for pick-up and deliveries.

Already teased on the chain's 'Menu Spotter Page' and also on social media by several fast food spotting pages, including @Snackolator, the new dessert seems to be getting all the hype. While fans are excited about the upcoming dessert, they also seem to be concerned about how the chain's ice cream machines are always broken. Throwing light on the situation, a user (@blak__adam) commented:

The New Peanut Butter Crunch McFlurry hits McDonald’s stores on August 9

It's raining sweetness at McDonald’s as the chain unveils the New Peanut Butter Crunch McFlurry. Set for a nationwide launch on August 9, 2023, the new dessert features the chain's classic creamy vanilla soft serve blended together with chocolatey peanut butter and a crispy cereal mix to offer a creamy, sweet-n-salty McFlurry experience.

However, as good and exciting as the new dessert may be, it is still leaving fans wondering if they will ever be able to try it out because of the broken Ice Cream machines. For the unfamiliar, McDonald’s is quite popular for its broken Ice Cream machines. Sometimes, things are so bad that there's literally a website called - mcbroken.com - that lets customers track stores with broken Ice Cream machines. All things considered, fans couldn't help but be skeptical about the same:

Despite the air being thick with worries and uncertainties, some fans couldn't shy away from sharing how excited they were for the New Peanut Butter Crunch McFlurry from McDonald’s.

As mentioned earlier, orders for the new McFlurry can be placed at the nearest store or through the chain's app for pick-up and deliveries.

It is to be noted that the new dessert is already expected to be in high demand and will only be sold for a limited time or until supplies last. In case you end up missing it because of a broken Ice Cream machine, try checking on mcbroken.com before visiting the next McDonald’s store.
