For an even richer flavor, toast the walnuts lightly before chopping. Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the filling. Garnish with a dusting of powdered sugar just before serving for an elegant touch. To prevent the crust from becoming soggy, you can brush it with melted white chocolate after baking and cooling.
