We made our Family Day a little more fun last Friday with homemade Kit Kat MckFlurries using some of the leftover halloween candy that we didn’t give out.
They turned out to be delicious and way more budget friendly than the ones you’d buy from a certain fast food restaurant.
I thought I’d share the recipe for this fun and easy treat, so that you can try it sometime, too. It’s definitely a great way to use up leftover halloween candy, and you don’t have to use Kit Kat. This treat works well with M&M’s, Snickers, Reeses, etc…
Here are your ingredients:
Simple enough. All you need are some Kit Kats and vanilla ice cream. We’re partial to the Trader Joe’s brand of vanilla ice cream.
After you gather your ingredients, open the Kit Kats and toss them into a food processor (you could also chop them up with a knife), but they should look something like this when they’re finished…
Then scoop the vanilla ice cream on top…
Mix everything up…
Here’s what it should look like after its been mixed together…
And finally, put into servings cups and garnish with extra chocolate…
Enjoy!

Those look so yummy! I try not to keep candy around, but I may have to go get some just to make some McFlurries π
Thanks, Elise! I’d have to say that at the moment Kit Kat is the favorite candy in the mckflurries. We tried using Snickers today while most of us liked it, there were 2 in the family that the snickers were a little too hard for.
I hope you enjoy this!
How fun. And thrifty.
I wonder if you could use a Kitchen Aide with the paddle attachement and combine the ice cream with the candy that way. Love the idea!
I would love for you to share this over on my mommy resource meme!
