Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa)
- 120 milliliters Heavy cream
- 100 grams Fresh raspberries
- 1 tablespoon Honey or sugar (optional, adjust to taste)
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 300 grams Fresh fruits (e.g., strawberries, banana slices, apple wedges)
- 100 grams Marshmallows
- 150 grams Cookies or pretzels
Instructions
1. Finely chop the dark chocolate and set it aside in a heatproof bowl.
2. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium-low heat until it starts to simmer, but do not let it boil.
3. Remove the cream from the heat and immediately pour it over the chopped dark chocolate. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt.
4. Gently stir the chocolate and cream mixture with a spatula until smooth and fully combined.
5. Using a blender or fork, mash the fresh raspberries into a puree. Pass the puree through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds, if desired.
6. Stir the raspberry puree, honey or sugar (if using), and vanilla extract into the chocolate mixture until well incorporated.
7. Transfer the fondue to a fondue pot or a heatproof serving bowl. Keep it warm over a tea light candle or low heat if using a fondue pot.
8. Arrange your dipping items such as fresh fruits, marshmallows, cookies, and pretzels on a platter.
9. Serve the warm chocolate raspberry fondue with the prepared dippers and enjoy!
