ngredients

# 10 ounces bittersweet chocolate or semisweet chocolate , chopped into small pieces

# 1/2-3/4 cup milk or half-and-half or heavy cream (or 1/2 to 3/4 cup milk plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter)

# 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions



1.

1

To make the sauce, in a small bowl, combine the chocolate and 1/2 cup milk or cream and melt gently in a barely simmering water bath or microwave on Medium (50 percent) power for about 2 minutes.

2.

2

Stir until smooth.

3.

3

Add more liquid if the sauce seems too thick or look curdled.

4.

4

Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.

5.

5

Use warm fondue immediately or set aside until needed and rewarm briefly.

6.

6

Have forks, skewers, or pretty (or goofy) swizzle sticks available for guests to dip with.

7.

7

If the fondue gets too thick or cool, reheat gently (without boiling) for 1 minute in the microwave on Medium (50percent) power or set in a pan of barely simmering water.

8.

8

Leftover sauce keeps several days in the refrigerator.

9.

9

It is a prefect topping for ice cream.

Note: This is a versatile recipe that can be tailored to your taste and the type of chocolate you are using.

11.

11

For the most intense chocolate fondue, use milk, rather than half-and-half or cream, and omit the butter.

12.

12

For even greater intensity, choose a bittersweet chocolate labeled anywhere from 66 percent to 70 percent and use the greater amount of liquid called for.

13.

13

Butter or cream results in a softer, mellower chocolate flavor.

14.

14

Ideas for dipping: Kumquats or segments of seedless clementines, oranges, or ruby grapefruit- If possible, separate the citrus into segments without breaking the membrane.

15.

15

If you set the segments on a rack to dry in a warm place or in the oven, preheated to 200掳 F, then turned off for several hours, the membrane will dry like crisp paper and the juices will burst in your mouth when you take a bite.
