Note

Store leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently in the microwave or on the stovetop, adding a splash of milk if needed to restore consistency.

For a vegan version, ensure your evaporated milk is plant-based (such as coconut or soy evaporated milk) and use a vegan vanilla extract.

European-style cocoa can be used instead of Dutch-process or natural cocoa for a milder flavor, though the color may vary slightly.
