Fantastic Fondue Recipes?

After a fantastic trip to the Melting Pot, a fondue restaurant chain, my brand new wife and I are inspired to do fondue on our own--in fact, we have an electric fondue pot!



Does anyone have any fantastic fondue recipes, either involving cheese or chocolate? Thanks!Fantastic Fondue Recipes?

French Appetizer



Ingredients:

Equal Parts (50-50) Sharp cheddar and Emmanthaler cheese (the emmanthaler will balance out the sharpness of the cheddar), enough for about 1 1/2 to 2 cups
