For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of regular butter. Add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness. A sprinkle of chopped walnuts or pecans adds a delightful crunch. Experiment with different types of cheese, such as Camembert or Gruyere. Serve with a side of fig jam or balsamic glaze for dipping.
