How Long Can You Freeze a McFlurry?
![How Long Can You Freeze a McFlurry?](https://cdn.thefreshmancook.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Copy-of-Copy-of-Thefreshmancook-2024-06-01T035629.189-1024x1024.jpg)
Once opened, ice cream stays fresh for about six weeks when stored at zero degrees Fahrenheit. Unopened ice cream can stay fresh for two to three months in a zero-degree Fahrenheit freezer.
Can You Make This M&M’s McFlurry in Advance?
McFlurries are best made when you’re ready to enjoy them. Freezing them for too long before serving can cause them to harden back up to ice cream, losing that delicious soft-serve texture. If you need to freeze your McFlurry briefly before serving, it’s okay, but it’s not recommended to freeze it for longer than 20 minutes.
Can I Make This M&M McFlurry in a Blender If I Don’t Have a Hand Blender?
Yes, if you don’t have a hand blender, you can use a regular blender or a NutriBullet. The choice is yours! I used a hand blender to minimize cleanup and make it right where I would be serving it.
