  • Sprinkle optional toppings like crushed cookies or strawberries over the top layer for added texture and flavor.

Chilling and Serving

  • Cut into slices with a sharp knife and serve immediately. Enjoy the creamy, delicious flavors with your guests.
  • Store any leftovers in the freezer, covered, for up to one week. Allow slices to thaw slightly before serving again.
