Some versions include using whole foods brand mascarpone cheese, reducing the heavy cream amount, or substituting the rum with a lowerugaroption.

(tips and tricks:

ensure all ingredients are cold to achieve a smooth filling
avoid using Whole Foods brand mascarpone cheese
add the cocoa powder just before serving to maintain its beauty and authenticity
make the filling non-alcoholic by replacing alcohol with vanilla extract
frost the cooled peanut butter fingers with a creamy peanut butter before applying the chocolate frosting
use quick oats for a moister bar
adjust cocoa powder quantity for a richer chocolate flavor

(potential challenges or limitations:

using heavy cream may result in a runny sauce, especially if not chilled properly, as the colder the ingredients, the better the emulsion
not all mascarpone is good for this recipe; some may be too thin or runny, affecting the overall texture and flavor of the bars. It is recommended to use thick shells for better texture and flavor retention.)
