Those of us of a certain era will look back warmly on fondue. Dig out that pot from the back upper kitchen cabinet!
Using the best quality chocolate is the way to get the best results. Don’t skimp, or you may be disappointed. Fondue is so basic, it’s all about the ingredients shining through! You can also use this sauce over ice cream, cake or pie.
Makes about 16 oz.
Ingredients
- 12 oz bittersweet chocolate chips, or chopped into small pieces
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 Tbsp unsalted butter, softened
Directions
- Put chocolate in a glass or metal bowl. Heat cream to a boil and pour over chocolate. Let sit 1 minute then whisk until combined. Whisk in butter for extra sheen and a bit more depth of flavor.
- Use immediately, or when ready, pour into your fondue pot and warm. Using fondue forks or skewers, dip chunks of fruit into the pot.
