Krispy Kreme doughnuts are coming to McDonald’s restaurants in New York — and the two restaurants’ collaboration is expanding across the U.S.!
To mark the 50th anniversary of the launch of Egg McMuffin, the fast food chain will be adding some other favorites to its breakfast menu.
On Tuesday, Feb. 25, the restaurant announced in a press release that Krispy Kreme doughnuts would be available to buy at all McDonald’s locations in New York.
“Krispy Kreme Lands in the Big Apple: Nothing goes with your go-to McCafé order quite like fresh Krispy Kreme doughnuts,” the press release read. “Starting today, New Yorkers can visit their local participating McDonald’s to enjoy that perfect pairing.
The new move joins other McDonald’s in major cities like Chicago, Cleveland, Indianapolis, Pittsburgh and Louisville, which already serve the treats.
More than half of all McDonald’s restaurants in the United States are set to serve Krispy Kreme doughnuts by the end of the year.
