For an even richer flavor, use dark cocoa powder. Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking. A pinch of espresso powder can enhance the chocolate flavor. This sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. If the sauce becomes too thick in the refrigerator, gently reheat it over low heat, stirring in a tablespoon of water or plant-based milk at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.
