Notes
You can add a 1/3 to 1/2 cup of chopped pecans or walnuts if you want a little extra crunch, but be sure to let people know before they bite in. Food allergies are nothing to joke about! (Kate never lets me forget how I discovered I had a shellfish allergy by eating four shrimp tacos and turning into a puffer fish.)
Whatever you decide, just don't forget the most important ingredient...love!
