- Position a square-shaped cake pan with parchment paper, reserving it for use later.
- Combine all fundamental components, transfer the mixture to a baking pan, compact it by pressing down firmly with your fingertips, and subsequently store it in the freezer.
- Combine all fillings until smooth and velvety, then pour them evenly over the prepared base. Use the back of a spoon to spread the mixture smoothly, eliminating any air pockets or imperfections. Finally, refrigerate the dessert for a minimum of four hours or preferably overnight to allow it to set properly.
- Retrieve contents from the freezer compartment and portion out into uniform square shapes. With the garnish artfully arranged, slice into bite-sized portions, and present with flair.
