Chocolate Fondue

Ingredients      

8 ounces heavy cream   

1 1/2 cups chocolate chips- use dark, semi-sweet or milk chocolate (12 oz bar chocolate, chopped)

Dippables such as strawberries, pineapple, banana, dried fruit, cake, brownies, marshmallows, etc.   Finely chopped nuts to dip in (optional).

Directions

Warm the cream over medium heat until it just begins to boil. Add the chocolate and whisk until smooth.   (You can also heat this in the microwave.)

Immediately transfer to a fondue pot heated with a low flame.  If you don’t have a fondue pot, just use a small ramekin or dish (if it starts to get too thick just add a tablespoon of cream and pop it back in the microwave).
