Additional Notes & Tips to Enhance Flavor
- Add extra chocolate chips or coconut flakes for a richer flavor.
- Want it even more indulgent? Drizzle with some melted dark chocolate after baking.
- You can use peanut butter if almond butter isn’t available—either way, you’ll be hooked.
- Store in an airtight container to keep them fresh (but let’s be real, they won’t last that long).
- For a fun twist, throw in some dried cranberries or raisins.
