Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
- 150 ml heavy cream
- 20 grams unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons ground cardamom
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 bananas (peeled and sliced)
- 1 mango (peeled and cubed)
- 1 cup pineapple chunks
- 1 papaya (peeled and cubed)
- 10 wooden skewers
Instructions
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl.
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to steam but does not boil.
Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes, then stir with a whisk until the chocolate melts and the mixture becomes smooth.
Add the unsalted butter, honey, ground cinnamon, ground cardamom, and vanilla extract to the chocolate mixture. Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture is silky.
Transfer the chocolate fondue to a fondue pot or a heatproof serving bowl. If using a fondue pot, light the burner to keep the fondue warm (on low heat).
Prepare the fruits by peeling, slicing, and cubing the bananas, mango, pineapple, and papaya. Thread the fruit pieces onto wooden skewers for easy dipping.
Serve the warm chocolate fondue alongside the skewered fruits. Dip the fruits into the chocolate and enjoy!
