Notes
For a non-alcoholic version, substitute dark rum with apple cider or orange juice. Use coconut cream for a dairy-free option, and mascarpone for a richer flavor instead of cream cheese. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze portions wrapped tightly for up to a month. Consider adding a pinch of nutmeg for extra warmth in the flavor. Garnish with cinnamon sticks or drizzled caramel for a festive touch when serving.
