This yr’s McDonald’s Shamrock Season is right here!
However if in case you have a Costco membership card, I’d advocate grabbing it and heading to your nearest warehouse to get your fingers on the brand new Double Chocolate Mint Sundae as a substitute. After all, that’s after you choose up paper towels, frozen rooster, a pillow-sized bag of chips, rotisserie rooster, a bag of romaine hearts that’ll rot earlier than you get midway via them, batteries, and a bunch of different issues that’ll simply complete over $200.
The seasonal dessert on the Costco meals courtroom options mint-flavored gentle serve swirled with chocolate sauce and topped with extra chocolate sauce and cookie crumbles.
Very similar to every part at Costco, this sundae is greater than you want and presents an incredible worth. It’s giant sufficient and cheap sufficient to make the Oreo Shamrock McFlurry look McFeeble and inexperienced with measurement envy. Talking of coloration, I’m attempting to recollect whether or not Costco’s dessert had a inexperienced tint. I maintain squinting on the pictures above and swearing I see some inexperienced, however I might’ve sworn the creamy base was simply white whereas I used to be consuming it. Possibly the meals courtroom’s LED lighting was doing one thing unusual to my telephone’s digital camera. Nonetheless, ultimately, it doesn’t actually matter, as a result of when you combine issues, the chocolate syrup blends into the gentle serve, turning every part gray. Scrumptious gray.
The mint on this sundae rises to a stage of barely chewed Wrigley’s Doublemint Gum, and the chocolate, although my sundae seems to be prefer it obtained caught in a chocolate flash flood, nonetheless permits the mint to return via. Nonetheless, if you would like a stronger minty punch, I really feel McDonald’s Oreo Shamrock McFlurry has Costco’s providing beat, however solely barely. Additionally, as a result of it’s smaller, the McFlurry has a greater soft-serve-to-cookie ratio. By the point I obtained to the underside half of the sundae’s cup, the cookie crumbles made uncommon appearances.
Nonetheless, whereas Costco’s Double Chocolate Mint Sundae might not be as minty or have as many cookie bits as McDonald’s providing, it nonetheless tastes wonderful, and I say the chocolate syrup makes it extra decadent. Additionally, its low $2.99 worth for one thing twice the scale of a McFlurry makes it style a bit sweeter. I hope it returns yearly so we will rejoice Costco Double Chocolate Mint Sundae Season!
