# Expert Tips:
01 -
- You get all the creamy coffeehouse satisfaction without the sugar crash or guilt
- The almond flour crust creates this incredible buttery crunch that pairs perfectly with silky filling
- It looks impressive but comes together faster than you would think
02 -
- The gelatin step is crucial for getting clean slices, but do not add it while it is hot or it might seize the cream cheese mixture
- Make sure the crust is completely cool before adding the filling, otherwise the texture will turn grainy and weird
03 -
- If your filling is not set after 2 hours, give it another hour and check that your gelatin was properly dissolved
- For an even deeper coffee flavor, add a teaspoon of instant espresso powder to the filling mixture
