- ¼ cup crushed honeycomb candy (plus extra for garnish)
- 2 tbsp honey
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Whipped cream (for topping)

Instructions
- Crush the Honeycomb Candy
Use a rolling pin or food processor to break the honeycomb into bite-sized chunks. This adds delightful crunch and caramel-like flavor throughout the shake. - Add Base Ingredients to Blender
Combine vanilla ice cream, milk, vanilla extract, and honey in a high-speed blender. This creamy base brings out the smooth and sweet notes of the shake. - Blend Until Smooth
Blend the mixture until thick and silky. If you like it extra thick, use less milk or freeze the serving glasses beforehand. - Stir in Crushed Honeycomb Candy
Add the crushed candy after blending to preserve texture. Gently fold in using a spoon for a satisfying crunch in every sip. - Serve in Chilled Glasses
Pour the milkshake into chilled glasses. Chilling helps keep it thick and prevents quick melting. - Garnish and Enjoy
Top with whipped cream, extra honeycomb chunks, and a drizzle of golden honey. Add a paper straw and serve immediately.
