Top 10 Fast Food Dessert Menu Items

#10: Peach Mango Pie

Jollibee

This Filipino fast food franchise has gained steady traction over the years with fans, many of which have gravitated towards Jollibee’s fantastic fried chicken. There’s another menu item of which Jollibee devotees can’t get enough, however, and that’s the peach mango pie. It could be that crispy, flaky exterior, or that sweet and gooey peach and mango filling, but there’s no denying the Jollibee peach mango pie’s place as a perfect way to cap off a salty chicken dinner. Just be careful biting into one right away, because this bad boy is served hot off the proverbial presses!

#9: Cinnamon Apple Pie

Popeyes

Full disclosure: there’s gonna be a lotta pies on this list, but we’re also totally okay with that, thanks to the cinnamon apple pie treat from Popeyes. This fried chicken chain has long dominated the chicken sandwich wars, but what do you do once the taste of salty breading and tangy pickles has faded away from your taste buds? Well, if you’re us (and a lot of other people) you head back to the Popeye’s counter or drive-through and order a cinnamon apple pie! It’s deep-friend, and unhealthy AF, but we don’t care. This turnover-styled confection hits the spot every time as a meal ender, or even as a late-nite snack!

#8: Jamocha Shake

Arby’s

Whoever said that milkshakes couldn’t also double as dessert? Not us. That’s why we often spring for the Jamocha Shake from Arby’s after we’ve devoured a couple dozen Arby’s sandwiches. This mocha-coffee confection has proven to be a winner with Arby’s fans as well, since so many frequent visitors to this fast food chain tend to pick the Jamocha Shake for their preferred sweet treat. And what’s not to like? There’s cold coffee, vanilla ice cream, milk, and chocolate syrup, all coming together in sweet, sweet harmony to tingle our collective tastebuds to the ends of the earth and back.

#7: Peach Milkshake

Chick-fil-A

It’s a time of year that Chick-fil-A fans look forward to with a vengeance that borders on the obsessive. We mean peach milkshake season, ya’ll! This fried chicken fast-food franchise rolls out this sweet treat during the warm summer months, as a cool down for their tasty sandwiches. The Chick-fil-A peach milkshake utilizes the franchise’s signature icedream blend of “not technically ice cream” soft serve, combined with real peach puree, whipped cream and a cherry. It’s sweet, tangy and honestly kind of refreshing…just don’t remind us of the calories, and we’ll be just fine!

#6: Cinnamon Twists

Taco Bell

They’re a tried ‘n true classic that never goes out of style. The cinnamon twists from Taco Bell taste light, crunchy and sweet, while never weighing you down the way so many other, heavier desserts do after a fast food meal. They’re really simple, too, consisting basically of Mexican duros de harina that are puffed up and lightly dusted with a deliciously airy cinnamon coating. Taco Bell’s cinnamon twists don’t feel greasy, either, but instead leave a pleasant aftertaste on the tongue that just makes us want to order up another bag…or maybe even double up with an order of salted caramel churros, if we’re feeling froggy!

#5: Chocolate Lava Crunch Cake

Domino’s

Consider this next dessert as one for those that like to over-indulge. The Domino’s Pizza brand is, after all, one of the kings of take-out pizza, a fast ‘n ready way to get in that greasy, garlicky goodness. But what happens when you’ve polished off all of the cheesy breadsticks and devoured the pepperoni? Do you dare to order one of Domino’s chocolate lava crunch cakes? We dare, and without any shame, we’re happy to say. That’s because these molten lumps of decadence always deliver the chocolatey goods, while that crunchy exterior offers a nice textural counterpoint to all of the sweetness. It’s a caloric bomb that’s worth all of the hype.

#4: Hershey’s Sundae Pie

Burger King

The internet is chock full of cool and interesting copycat recipes for many of our favorite fast food treats. This includes the fan-favorite Hershey’s sundae pie from Burger King. Still, the ease with which this no-bake dessert can be created takes nothing away from the end results of its deliciousness. It is, after all, a light and pillowy Hershey’s chocolate crème filling laid atop a crunchy Oreo pie crust. This sundae pie is then topped with a rich fudge drizzle and finished off with more chocolate chips, lining our already-full stomachs with yet another indulgent layer of sugary goodness.

#3: Oreo McFlurry

McDonald’s

The McDonald’s brand’s cultural dominance doesn’t begin and end with its burgers. The chain has also provided some of the fast food world’s most iconic meal-enders, including their hot apple pies. Meanwhile, the Oreo McFlurry was introduced in the mid-1990s and quickly gained preferred status as one of the franchise’s most beloved desserts. It’s a smooth and decadent treat that features the company’s classic vanilla soft serve, blended together with crunchy Oreo cookie bits. It’s dreamy, ice-creamy magic in a cup…just make sure the soft serve machine is actually working at your local McDonald’s before trying to order this one.

#2: Blizzard

Dairy Queen

There’s a reason why workers at your local Dairy Queen are trained to turn the company’s classic Blizzard treat upside down before they place it on the counter. DQ is awfully proud of how dense and delicious their Blizzards are, and they wanna show you just how much work goes into creating this concoction of soft serve ice cream and delicious toppings. The butterfat ratio of Dairy Queen’s signature sweet stuff allows it to taste thicker than a McDonald’s McFlurry, although if we’re being honest, we’d prefer if you don’t make us choose between both of our true loves.

#1: Frosty

Wendy’s

There’s no wrong way to order, eat, or play with a Frosty from Wendy’s. Just don’t call it ice cream. It’s not really a milkshake, either, but rather the fast food chain’s own, unique take on dessert. A mixture of sugar, milk, cream and more get mixed together in a manner similar to both of those frozen dairy treats, but end up coming out with a taste that’s undeniably “Wendy’s.” Chocolate, vanilla, Oreo, it’s all good in our book, but where the Frosty truly shines is as a receptacle for one’s french fry. That combination of salty, hot, cold and sweet gets us each and every time.
