How do I clean hot chocolate from car upholstery?

Can I get hot chocolate stains out of car upholstery? I spilled hot chocolate all over my passenger seat and now there's a huge stain.

“Yikes! Hot chocolate stains are no fun, but you should be able to get it out with ease.
You’ll have to work quickly with this, so follow the directions below ASAP:
Create a solution with 1 cup of warm water and 1 tablespoon of detergent (either car upholstery cleaner or dish soap is great!). Wet a clean rag with cold water, and gently blot the excess liquid area. Follow up with a dry paper towel. Use a damp towel to apply the mixed detergent. Again, blot DON’T rub. Apply white vinegar to the area, blotting with a paper towel. Apply water with a sponge or towel and dab the area. Blot dry with a clean rag.
If this doesn’t work and a permanent stain is left, contact your local car detailer to get your seats
deep cleaned
