How to Make Applebee's Honey Mustard Sauce

In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, mustard, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, and garlic powder until smooth.
Gradually whisk in the olive oil until the sauce is emulsified and creamy.
Stir in the paprika and salt and pepper to taste.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more honey for sweetness, mustard for tang, or vinegar for sharpness.
Transfer the sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. The sauce will thicken slightly as it chills.
