Ingredients
- 200 grams dark chocolate (at least 60% cocoa)
- 120 milliliters heavy cream
- 60 milliliters whole milk
- 15 grams unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt (optional)
- 500 grams assorted fruits and dippers (e.g., strawberries, bananas, marshmallows, pretzels, cubes of pound cake)
Directions
Step 1
Chop the dark chocolate into small, even pieces to ensure it melts evenly. Set aside.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream and whole milk. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is warm but not boiling.
Step 3
Reduce the heat to low and slowly add the chopped chocolate to the saucepan. Stir gently with a whisk or spatula until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Step 4
Add the unsalted butter and continue stirring until the butter is fully incorporated, which will help give the fondue a silky texture.
Step 5
Stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt (if using) to enhance the flavor.
Step 6
Transfer the chocolate mixture to a fondue pot or heatproof bowl placed over a tea light or warming element to keep it warm and smooth during serving.
Step 7
Arrange the assorted fruits and dippers on a serving platter around the fondue pot. Provide long fondue forks or skewers for dipping.
Step 8
Enjoy dipping your dippers into the warm, silky chocolate fondue for a delightful dessert experience!
