Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the fresh raspberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice.
Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the raspberries release their juices and the mixture begins to simmer, about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water until smooth.
Slowly pour the cornstarch mixture into the simmering raspberry mixture while stirring constantly.
Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, or until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds. Let the raspberry sauce cool for a few minutes.
In a separate small saucepan, warm the heavy cream over medium-low heat until it just starts to steam (do not boil).
Reduce the heat to low and add the semi-sweet chocolate chips to the cream, stirring until completely smooth and melted.
Gently fold the raspberry sauce into the melted chocolate mixture until fully incorporated.
Transfer the raspberry fondue to a fondue pot or a heat-safe serving bowl. Keep warm over a low flame or serve immediately.
Serve with an assortment of dippers such as fresh fruit (strawberries, banana slices, apple slices), marshmallows, pound cake cubes, or pretzels. Enjoy!
