Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (use best chocolate for fondue)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Dippers: Strawberries, banana slices, marshmallows, pretzels, pound cake cubes
Instructions
- Prepare all your chocolate fondue dippers and arrange them on a dessert board or platter. Set aside.
- Combine the chocolate chips, heavy cream, and butter in a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan.
- Place the saucepan over low heat. Stir constantly until the chocolate and butter are completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Do not let it boil.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and the pinch of salt.
- Transfer the creamy chocolate fondue to a fondue pot or a small slow cooker set to the ‘Warm’ setting if you prefer the crock pot chocolate fondue method.
- Serve immediately with your prepared dippers for a quick chocolate fix.
Notes
- For a Melting Pot copycat recipe flavor, add 1 tablespoon of creamy peanut butter along with the chocolate and cream.
- If the fondue thickens too much while serving, stir in one teaspoon of warm milk or cream until the desired consistency returns.
- This recipe works well for a romantic dessert idea or as part of a larger chocolate dessert buffet.
