Notes

To serve, cut into generous slices and arrange on a decorative plate. Dust with powdered sugar or garnish with fresh berries. Pair with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence. Can be prepared a day in advance and assembled before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Can substitute almond or coconut milk for a dairy-free version.
