For an even richer flavor, use brown sugar instead of white sugar. To prevent the crust from browning too quickly, cover the edges with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking. Feel free to add a tablespoon of bourbon or rum to the filling for a spirited twist. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate indulgence.
