Tips & Substitutions
For a crunchier texture, consider toasting the chopped nuts before mixing them in. If you prefer a different flavor, you can substitute the semi-sweet chocolate pieces with white chocolate or butterscotch chips. To enhance the sweetness, add a sprinkle of sea salt on top after baking. For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free graham crackers.
