Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider substituting the margarine with butter. If you prefer a nut-free version, you can omit the walnuts or replace them with chopped oats. To save time, use a pre-made cream cheese frosting instead of Cool Whip, or make your own whipped cream for a fresher taste. Always ensure the crust is fully cooled before adding the toppings to prevent sogginess.
