Ingredients

- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 (11.5-ounce) bag milk chocolate chips
Instructions

- For the sundaes: Place each topping in a separate serving bowl. Scoop the gelato or ice cream into dessert bowls and drizzle with the milk chocolate sauce. Allow guests to sprinkle their desired toppings over their sundaes. Top with the whipped cream and cherries, if desired.
