Coconut flakes add extra texture, turning each piece into a true gastronomic delight. Perfect as a morning dessert with a cup of aromatic coffee or as a festive treat that can adorn any tea party. The ease of preparation makes this recipe accessible even for culinary beginners, while its delightful aroma fills the kitchen with coziness and warmth.
