Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces good quality dark chocolate, chopped
- 1 cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Place the chopped dark chocolate into a medium, heat-safe bowl.
- Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer around the edges. Do not let it boil rapidly.
- Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate. Let it sit undisturbed for five minutes to allow the chocolate to melt.
- Whisk the mixture slowly, starting from the center and moving outward, until the chocolate and cream are completely combined and the fondue is smooth and glossy. This creates a ganache-style dip.
- Transfer the chocolate fondue to a small fondue pot or a small slow cooker set to the ‘warm’ setting to keep it melted for serving.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dippers.
Notes
- For serving without a fondue pot, keep the fondue in the slow cooker on low or transfer it to a small serving bowl and reheat gently on the stovetop if it thickens too much.
- Use semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate for the best flavor balance against the cream.
- If the fondue seems too thick, stir in one teaspoon of milk or cream at a time until you reach your desired dipping consistency.
