Ingredients
To make the fondue:
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 8 ounces premium dark chocolate chopped or chips (at least 60% cacao, see note 2)
- 8 ounces premium milk chocolate chopped or chips
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- salt optional
For serving:
- Fresh Fruit: Strawberries, oranges, bananas, pineapple, cherries
- Baked goods: Brownies, rice krispie treats, cookies, Angel food cake, pound cake
- Candy: Marshmallows, caramels, peanut brittle
Instructions
- Bring a saucepan of water to a gentle simmer and set a glass or metal bowl over the top to create a double boiler (do not let the water touch the bowl).
- Add heavy cream to bowl and heat until the cream feels hot to the touch (140 to 150 degrees). Add chocolate and whisk until smooth.
- Whisk in vanilla. Add salt to taste if desired. Transfer to a fondue pot and heat the fuel underneath to keep warm (keep the flame low). Serve with fruit or other sweets.

Notes
- Fondue pot: I have and love this Cuisinart electric fondue pot. It's easy to use, a breeze to clean, and it works really well! It's the same one you see in the photos, and it comes with 8 skewers. The recipe is written for a stove-top version of fondue so anyone can make it.
- Chocolate: For deep chocolate flavor, use a premium chocolate with at least 60% cacao. Or, substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Yield: This recipe makes about 4 cups (1 quart) chocolate fondue, enough for 16 servings, 1/4 cup each.
