Chocolate fondue is a classic, crowd-pleasing dessert that’s simple to make and perfect for any occasion. With just 15 minutes of preparation and cooking, you can create a warm, velvety dip for fruits, cookies, and more.
Use a fondue pot for serving or a heatproof bowl for melting the chocolate.
Melt the Chocolate:
Stovetop: Place the chocolate and heavy cream in a heatproof bowl over a pot of gently simmering water. Stir constantly until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Microwave: Combine the chocolate and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the mixture is smooth.
Enhance the Flavor:
Stir in the vanilla extract, liqueur, or a pinch of salt if desired.
Transfer to Fondue Pot:
Pour the melted chocolate into a fondue pot to keep it warm. Use low heat to prevent burning.
Serve and Enjoy:
Arrange your chosen dippers around the fondue pot and start dipping.
