Cleaning Hot Chocolate Stains Off Laptop Screen

I pulled out my old laptop the other day to use as a video chatting and note taking machine during this "work/school from home" time.  I had forgotten, but in the past a water bottle full of hot chocolate had exploded all over my laptop.  Keeping hot liquids in sealed containers turns out to not be a good idea.  I had managed to mostly clean it off the keyboard and track pad, but the screen is still covered in hot chocolate stain.  I've tried a damp microfiber cloth and some lens cleaning wipes I use for my phone and camera.  Any idea of how I could clean the screen safely without harming it?  It already seems to have a couple back light splotches that are brighter than the rest of the screen and I don't want to cause any more.  (I don't know if those are related to the hot chocolate incident, it's an old laptop).
