Ingredients
Scale
Fondue
- 12 oz Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
- 6 oz Milk Chocolate Chips
- 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1/8 teaspoon Salt
Dippers
- Marshmallows
- Graham Crackers
- Pretzels
- Fresh Fruit (such as strawberries, banana slices, apple wedges)
- Cake pieces
Instructions
- Prepare the crock pot: Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, heavy whipping cream, vanilla extract, and salt into a small 2-quart crock pot. Make sure the ingredients are evenly distributed for even melting.
- Cook the fondue: Cover the crock pot and set it to low heat. Allow the mixture to cook for 1 to 2 hours, stirring every 20 to 30 minutes. This helps the chocolate melt smoothly and prevents scorching or clumping, resulting in a rich, creamy fondue.
- Serve and enjoy: Once the chocolate is fully melted and smooth, transfer the crock pot to your serving area and keep it on the warm setting if available to maintain temperature. Serve with your favorite dippers like marshmallows, graham crackers, pretzels, fruit, or cake for dipping and enjoy this delightful dessert.
Notes
- Use a 2-quart crock pot for even cooking and easy stirring.
- Stir regularly to prevent chocolate from sticking or burning on the bottom.
- You can substitute heavy whipping cream with half-and-half for a lighter option, but the fondue may be less creamy.
- Keep the fondue warm on the crock pot’s low or warm setting while serving to maintain the perfect dipping consistency.
- Feel free to experiment with different dipping options like pound cake, biscotti, or fresh berries.
