Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Dark chocolate (chopped)
- 120 ml Heavy cream
- 60 ml Milk
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 Pinch of salt
- 500 grams Assorted dippers (e.g., strawberries, bananas, marshmallows, cookies, pretzels)
Instructions
Prepare the dippers by washing and cutting fruits into manageable pieces, and arranging all dippers on a serving platter.
In a medium heatproof bowl, combine the chopped dark chocolate, heavy cream, and milk.
Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler method), making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water.
Stir continuously with a spatula or whisk until the chocolate melts completely and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Add the unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to combine until the butter has melted and the mixture is silky.
Transfer the chocolate mixture to a fondue pot or a heatproof serving bowl to keep it warm. If using a fondue pot, keep the flame on low to avoid burning the chocolate.
Serve immediately with the assorted dippers, letting everyone dip their chosen treats into the warm chocolate fondue and enjoy!
