- Once butter and the coconut milk are both fully dissolved, remove from heat and place in a heat resistant container.

Notes
Important Tips
You can consume this buffalo sauce right away, but I highly recommend letting it sit in the fridge for at least two hours to allow it to thicken up. For full thickness, wait 12 hours.
Hot Sauce - I used Frank's Red Hot sauce, but any hot sauce will do. Be sure it is solely hot sauce, and not buffalo sauce.
Coconut Milk- This thickens the sauce and makes it creamier. It must be from a can + you must use the hard part on the top, not the liquid.
You can find coconut milk in the Asian aisle of a grocery store, or in the baking aisle.
Storage
This vegan buffalo sauce should be store in the fridge for up to 14 days. If you notice any separation, simply shake or mix it.
I do not recommend freezing this sauce.
