Creative ways to enjoy it
When it comes to serving your Christmas Milk Cake, get a little creative! Consider topping it with fresh berries for a pop of color and flavor. A drizzle of sugar-free chocolate syrup or a sprinkle of coconut flakes can take it up a notch. Pair it with a cup of herbal tea or coffee to create a delightful dessert experience!
Keeping leftovers fresh
To store any leftovers, place them in an airtight container. This will help maintain the cake’s texture and flavor. You can keep it in the refrigerator for about 3-5 days.
