Flaming Turtle Chocolate Fondue from the Melting Pot restaurant



INGREDIENTS:

1/4 cup milk

1/2 cup milk chocolate

1/4 cup caramel syrup

2 Tbsp pecans, chopped

2 Tbsp rum, 151-proof for flamb茅

.

For the Dipping Basket:

Fruit, cut (strawberries, bananas and pineapple)

Marshmallows

Cake, cubed (pound cake and cheesecake)

PREPARATION:

Soften milk chocolate in the microwave. Heat milk in the fondue pot. Once it's hot, add softened chocolate. Stir until you have a smooth consistency. Pour caramel into a pool in the middle of the chocolate. When it's time to serve, pour the rum over the top of the chocolate. Leave a small amount on the spoon to ignite with a lighter. Use flaming spoon to ignite the rum on the chocolate. Add the chopped pecans to the chocolate. Allow the flame to burn out.



Note: All dipping items should be skewered and dipped in the chocolate. Be careful as you reach the sides and bottom of the fondue pot; the chocolate tends to be hotter there.



Yield: 2 servings

Suggestion use whipping cream instead of milk and leave off the rum if desired.Fondue...?
To be honest I use a high % cocoa solids chocolate like green and blacks, I melt it down over a pan in a dish of water and then add a little cream to thin it down, its gorgeous with fresh pieces of fruit like strawberries, pineapple and kiwi and segments of orange.
