CHOCOLATE FONDUE

I adopted this recipe after Mean Chef (IHHDRO) left the site. His original comments were, "A simple party dessert which is a year-round opportunity to use the season's best and ripest fruit." My comments submitted as a review when I first tried it were, "Excellent chocolate fondue. I cut the recipe in half and prepared it with Ghirardelli Semi-sweet chocolate and heavy cream. Hubby and I ate an entire pound of strawberries dipped in this luxury while watching movies tonight." I have made this many times since for just Hubby and I, and for guests. It is a very good chocolate fondue.

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

10 ounces bittersweet chocolate or 10 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped into small pieces
1/2-3/4 cup half-and-half (or 1/2 to 3/4 cup milk plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter) or 1/2-3/4 cup heavy cream (or 1/2 to 3/4 cup milk plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • To make the sauce, in a small bowl, combine the chocolate and 1/2 cup milk or cream and melt gently in a barely simmering water bath or microwave on Medium (50 percent) power for about 2 minutes.
  • Stir until smooth.
  • Add more liquid if the sauce seems too thick or look curdled.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
  • Use warm fondue immediately or set aside until needed and rewarm briefly.
  • Have forks, skewers, or pretty (or goofy) swizzle sticks available for guests to dip with.
  • If the fondue gets too thick or cool, reheat gently (without boiling) for 1 minute in the microwave on Medium (50percent) power or set in a pan of barely simmering water.
  • Leftover sauce keeps several days in the refrigerator.
  • It is a prefect topping for ice cream.
  • Note: This is a versatile recipe that can be tailored to your taste and the type of chocolate you are using.
  • For the most intense chocolate fondue, use milk, rather than half-and-half or cream, and omit the butter.
  • For even greater intensity, choose a bittersweet chocolate labeled anywhere from 66 percent to 70 percent and use the greater amount of liquid called for.
  • Butter or cream results in a softer, mellower chocolate flavor.
  • Ideas for dipping: Kumquats or segments of seedless clementines, oranges, or ruby grapefruit- If possible, separate the citrus into segments without breaking the membrane.
  • If you set the segments on a rack to dry in a warm place or in the oven, preheated to 200° F, then turned off for several hours, the membrane will dry like crisp paper and the juices will burst in your mouth when you take a bite.
  • Chunks of pineapple Chunks of fresh coconut or large curls of dried coconut Chunks of banana Dried fruit such as apricot, mango, papaya, pineapple, or Bing cherries Strips of good-quality candied orange, grapefruit or lemon peel Cubes of pound cake or angel food cake, or toasted cubes of brioche or challah Cigarette cookies, fan wafers, graham crackers or digestive biscuits, or pretzels Marshmallows or meringues Toasted shaved almonds (to sprinkle on after dipping).

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • If you don't have a microwave-safe bowl, you can use a regular bowl placed in a larger microwave-safe bowl filled with water.
  • Be careful not to overheat the chocolate, as it can burn easily. Heat it in short intervals, stirring in between, until it is melted and smooth.
  • If the chocolate is too thick, you can add a little bit of milk or cream to thin it out.
  • Serve the chocolate fondue with a variety of dipping options, such as fruit, cookies, brownies, or marshmallows.

Conclusion:

Chocolate fondue is a delicious and easy dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is perfect for parties or special occasions, and it can also be made ahead of time and reheated when you are ready to serve it. With a few simple ingredients and a few minutes of your time, you can have a delicious chocolate fondue that will satisfy your sweet tooth.
