Description

A quick and elegant chocolate fondue made with just a few ingredients, delivering a rich, silky-smooth dessert perfect for dipping fruit, cake, or treats in minutes.


Ingredients

8 oz (225g) high-quality chocolate or chocolate chips

0.5 cup (120ml) heavy cream

Pinch of salt


Instructions

  1. Place the chocolate or chocolate chips into a fondue pot, saucepan, or heatproof bowl.
  2. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream with a pinch of salt over medium heat until steaming and small bubbles form, about 3 minutes.
  3. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let it sit undisturbed for 30 seconds.
  4. Whisk gently until the mixture is smooth, glossy, and fully combined.
  5. Keep warm over very low heat or in a fondue pot and serve immediately with desired dippers.

Notes

Use high-quality chocolate for the smoothest texture.

Avoid overheating to prevent grainy chocolate.

Add vanilla, spices, or liqueur for flavor variations.

Thin with a splash of warm milk or cream if needed.
