I just now tested a batch using 2% milk and Smart Balance for the butter. It turned out well, not as creamy or thick as the sauce with whipping cream (I have made it with half & half with success) and it has a wonderful dark chocolate flavor. The mouth feel is not as silky, either. I will let you know how/if it sets up as nicely in the frig as the one made with whipping cream.

It set up really nice in the frig so it's a winner!

It looks great but, I'm curious, what's Yucatecan about this recipe?

I just made this sauce. It is easy and very delicious. I substituted dark rum for the Triple sec and left out the cinammon and substiuted a vanilla bean for extra body.
