Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher)
- 120 milliliters heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 500 grams strawberries
- 1 pinch sea salt (optional)
Instructions
Rinse the strawberries under cold water and gently pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Leave the green tops on for easy dipping.
Chop the dark chocolate into small, even pieces and set aside to ensure it melts evenly.
In a medium-sized, heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium-low heat until it begins to steam but does not boil.
Reduce the heat to low and gradually add the chopped chocolate to the saucepan, stirring constantly with a silicone spatula until fully melted and smooth.
Stir in the unsalted butter and pure vanilla extract for added richness and depth of flavor. Continue stirring until the mixture is glossy and uniform.
If desired, add a pinch of sea salt to enhance the chocolate's flavor profile.
Transfer the warm chocolate mixture to a fondue pot with a tealight or other source of gentle heat to maintain its temperature while serving.
Arrange the strawberries on a serving platter and provide fondue forks or skewers for dipping.
Enjoy dipping the strawberries into the warm chocolate fondue. Serve immediately for the best experience.
