- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.

- Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, chopped nuts (if using), and a pinch of salt until well combined.

- You can also add a sprinkle of sea salt on top before chilling for a sweet and salty contrast.
