Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces high-quality semisweet or dark chocolate, finely chopped
- 1 cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Place the chopped chocolate in a medium, heat-safe bowl.
- In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream 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 completely.
- After five minutes, gently whisk the mixture starting from the center and working outward until the chocolate and cream are fully combined into a smooth, glossy dip.
- Transfer the fondue to a small fondue pot or a small slow cooker set to the lowest setting to keep it warm for serving.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dippers.
Notes
- For a stovetop method that keeps it warm, use a double boiler setup or a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan over very low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
- If using a slow cooker, stir every 10-15 minutes to prevent scorching on the bottom.
- To make a stunning chocolate fondue board, arrange dippers attractively around the fondue pot on a large platter or cutting board.
- For a richer flavor, use 60% cacao or higher chocolate.
