Variations & Tips
For a bit of spice, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the brown sugar mixture. If you have picky eaters who aren’t fond of garlic, you can omit the garlic powder or replace it with onion powder for a milder flavor. For a creamier texture, stir in a splash of heavy cream or a dollop of sour cream just before serving. You can also add some cooked, crumbled bacon or shredded cheese on top for an extra indulgent treat.
