Notes

Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days, covered with plastic wrap. Add toppings just before serving to maintain their crunchiness. For a stronger mint flavor, use mint extract instead of vanilla. Feel free to get creative with the toppings – use your favorite candies or add some fresh fruit for a pop of color.
