McDonald’s Festive Menu Has Arrived Featuring Camembert Cheese Dippers And New Chicken Burger

Ah, Christmas. The time of family, of presents, and most importantly of food.

There's possibly nothing better in the run up to December 25th than all the festive menus that start to pop up in our favourite restaurants. First, there was the Pret Christmas sandwich, then Greggs' much hyped addition of pigs in blankets and now, finally, we've got Maccies' full savoury menu.

It seems like an age since we were last able to tuck into McDoanld's legendary Big Tasty or their indulgent camembert cheese melt dippers. But now both Christmassy delights are back in UK branches, just in time for the holiday season.

For those unfamiliar with the Big Tasty, the Crimbo delight is not one to miss for festive fast food lovers.

It's a beef burger with Emmental cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion and Big Tasty sauce, which costs £4.29 for an individual burger, or £5.80 for a medium meal.

You can also add bacon for 40p if you fancy it.

This year, this isn't the only Crimbo burger on the menu either, as the fast food giant has also introduced a Chicken Deluxe, costing £5.19 for an individual burger or £6.59 for a medium meal.

This contains two sumptuous pieces of crispy fried chicken, a fresh tomato relish, mayo, lettuce, cheese and red onion rings. Yum.

Plus, their cheese melt dippers are back with a festive update, being made with Camembert instead for a limited time only.

You can either buy a small pack of cheese melt dippers alongside a tangy tomato dip for £1.69, or indulge and buy a share box, filled with 12 cheesy bites, for £4.40. (We won't tell if you eat them all yourself!)

The new savoury releases come not long after McDonald's revealed its sweet offerings for the festive season.

Joining the menu is the millionaire's doughnut, which has a gooey caramel filling, sprinklings of biscuit pieces on top and a dark cocoa drizzle, costing just £1.39.

Plus, we can also now buy the mixed berry muffin (£1.29) made with blueberries, redcurrants, blackcurrants, and a rich, indulgent chocolate brownie (£1.39) is also on offer.

But that's not all, as the sought after Matchmakers cool mint McFlurry is also officially back from tomorrow (November 20th), having last been available all the way back in 2013.

Yep, just time for the festive season, the soft dairy ice cream swirled with Mint Matchmaker pieces and a cool chocolate mint sauce will be available once again, costing 99p for a regular pot and £1.39 if you want to upgrade to large.

Maccies trip, anyone?
