Notes

For a dairy-free version, substitute milk with almond milk and butter with coconut oil. For an egg-free alternative, use applesauce or mashed bananas. Adding a pinch of espresso powder enhances the chocolate flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week in the refrigerator. Let come to room temperature before serving.
