Variations

For those looking for a **gluten-free variation**, replace any wheat-based ingredients with almond flour or coconut flour. It will maintain the rich flavor while ensuring it's gluten-free! 🌰 Transform this into a **vegan delight** by substituting dairy products with almond milk or coconut cream. Bard cheese like cream cheese can be swapped for cashew or macadamia nut cream cheeses which give a luxurious consistency without compromising on taste. 🥥 Try swapping traditional sugar with natural sweeteners like maple syrup or agave nectar, which both add a unique twist with a hint of floral essence. 🍁
