For a richer flavor, use brown butter in the crust. Simply melt the butter and cook until it turns a nutty brown color, then let it cool slightly before using. Feel free to experiment with different pudding flavors. Vanilla, chocolate, or even pistachio pudding would be delicious variations. Garnish with shaved chocolate or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra touch of elegance.
