This recipe for crunch coat ice cream topping is brought to you today by a partnership with Honeycomb cereal. All opinions are my own.

When Honeycomb reached out and asked if I’d like to help them celebrate their 50th birthday, I knew the answer was yes. I have such sweet memories of eating Honeycomb cereal and watching Saturday morning cartoons as a kid. Cartoons are on 24/7 these days, but tradition of Honeycomb for breakfast still lives on in our house. When he was younger, Malone had a lot of fun playing with his food- the shape of the cereal lends itself nicely to a bit of sneaky learning.

There are six holes in a piece of Honeycomb cereal, which means you can do a lot of fun math at breakfast with it (counting, multiplying or dividing by six).

I know that my son will have a lot of great memories from life around my kitchen table. One of my favorite childhood memories was going to our local Tastee Freez for a burger and ice cream. My favorite kind of ice cream to get there was a crunch coat cone. Crunch coat is a magic combination of sprinkles, nuts, and something sweet (but not too sweet) and crunchy.
