You could boil the sugar, corn syrup mixture a few minutes longer and lessen the amount of evaporated milk if you want to see if it has the thickness you prefer.

Question: If you make it ahead of time, how do you heat it up? Back on the stove or microwave?

I have been making this syrup for 30+ years. Lost the original recipe and thrilled to find it here. Another suggestion for use - Apple pie, vanilla ice cream covered in cinnamon cream syrup.
