Notes
For a richer, creamier sauce, you can use half-and-half or a combination of heavy cream and milk. Feel free to adjust the amount of cheese to your desired level of creaminess. Leftover Marry Me Gnocchi can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
