This rare McDonald's treat is making a comeback

'Tis the season for McDonald's to bring back a fan favorite sweet treat: the Holiday Pie.

The dessert has returned to menus in "select regions" across the United States, the company confirmed. McDonald's has released the festive pastry for the past 10 years, but the areas of availability vary. Fans have spotted the pies in places including Oregon, Illinois and Texas so far this year. According to the chain, the Holiday Pie is a "mouthwatering pastry" that's filled with vanilla custard and baked in a buttery crust (similar in shape to its rectangular apple pie) and topped with rainbow sprinkles. McDonald's (MCD) said the pie will be available until early January, and as usual won't be released nationwide — making it a rare treat . The McRib was sold in a similar manner, but last year McDonald's finally launched it nationwide.

Where's my McRib!!!???

I had a McRib a few months ago. I remember it as being kind of tasty, but the this thing was God-awful. Cardboard would have tasted better.

Gross.

Bring back the fried apple pie. The crispy crust with the bubbles that would crackle when you bit into it- they were amazing.

They still have the fried apple pie, I think.

I’m a coconut cream fan.

I hope not for your sake. But it wouldn’t surprise me. They sell them for a very short time.

I gave up on McD’s when I could go to the VFW and get a burger and fries for about the same money as a 1/4 pounder meal.

Bring back the fried apple pie. The crispy crust with the bubbles that would crackle when you bit into it-

And with the lava-hot filling that would leave blisters on the roof of your mouth.
