Notes
Swap the pecans for walnuts, almonds, or hazelnuts for a different nutty flavor.
Add a drizzle of honey, agave syrup, or stevia for more sweetness if desired.
For a dairy-free version, use plant-based yogurt and cottage cheese alternatives like coconut or almond yogurt.
Use fresh berries like blueberries or strawberries in place of raspberries for variety.
Add a dash of cinnamon or vanilla extract for extra flavor.
Try using cacao nibs instead of cocoa powder for a richer chocolate flavor and crunch.
