Note

Storage: Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. For longer storage, freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.

Substitutions: You can use natural peanut butter for a less sweet version, but you may need to adjust the amount of confectioners' sugar. Almond butter can also be used as a nut alternative.

Tips: Ensure the evaporated milk is at room temperature before melting with chocolate to help it blend smoothly. If the mixture is too soft after chilling, place it in the freezer for 15-20 minutes before cutting for cleaner slices.

Variations: Add a pinch of sea salt on top after frosting for a sweet-and-salty contrast. For extra crunch, sprinkle additional chopped peanuts on the frosting before chilling.
