Storing leftovers
Flatten any remaining ice cream to level the surface before returning the pint to the freezer. This will make the next spin easier and reduce unnecessary strain on the machine. Learn more about after-serving habits.
Tips
- Chopping the Smarties makes the frozen pieces easier to eat and distributes the chocolate and candy shells more evenly.
- Add the Smarties only after the first spin to limit color bleeding into the vanilla base.
- Serve immediately after the MIX-IN cycle for the softest, most McFlurry-like texture.
- Use a thick chocolate sauce at room temperature so it drizzles smoothly over the ice cream without making it runny.
- Smarties also pair well with caramel sauce. You can use it in place of the chocolate sauce.
