Notes

This dessert can be made a day in advance for enhanced flavor and convenience.
For a vegan version, substitute cream cheese with cashew or tofu-based alternatives and use coconut whipped cream instead of Cool Whip.
If avoiding gelatin, consider using agar-agar as a plant-based gelling agent for a firm texture.
