Notes
- It's best to serve your fondue immediately so that it doesn't harden up.
- You can use a fondue pot if you have one, a crockpot on low or simply use a small oven safe container with a tea light candle lit underneath it to provide a little heat to keep the chocolate liquid.
- I recommend using chopped chocolate bars rather than chocolate chips for this recipe.
