- For extra indulgence, top with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
- If you prefer a stronger chocolate flavor, increase the amount of cocoa powder to suit your taste.
- Store leftovers in the freezer in an airtight container, though it’s best served within a few days for optimal texture.
