Specific fondue pot recipes?

I have the Hershey's Kisses fondue pot set and it did not come with any recipes! Has anyone used one? Or know of websites where I can find recipes?



Also, (this may sound dumb), but is it only meant for chocolate or can you do cheese too?



Thanks! And Happy New Year!!Specific fondue pot recipes?

I'm guessing it does not get hot enough for cheese. But maybe if you make the cheese fondue on the stove and eat it up quickly, it won't get too hard or cold in the Hershey pot.





** Chocolate Fondue **



It's important to maintain moderately low heat (no more than 120掳F) under your fondue pot so the chocolate stays melted and just warm to the touch. Too much heat can ruin the chocolate.



1/2 cup heavy cream

8 oz. semisweet chocolate, chips or finely chopped bar

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1 pound cake, cut into 1-inch cubes

2 pints strawberries, rinsed and hulled



Fill the fondue pot with 2 cups warm water and place the pot on the stand. Fill the fuel burner with oil according to the manufacturer's instructions and set it on the stand.



In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, warm the cream until steam begins to rise, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the chocolate, and stir until melted, smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla and stir until blended. Pour the chocolate sauce into the porcelain insert and place the insert in the fondue pot. Set the splatter guard on the top.



Set the fondue pot on the table and light the fuel burner, following the manufacturers instructions. Serve with pound cake, strawberries and individually marked fondue forks for dipping. Serves 6.
