This delicious chocolate fondue is perfect to share with your sweetheart on Valentine’s Day!

Chocolate Fondue

Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cups whole milk or heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 6 ounces Ghirardelli or other brand 70% cacao extra bittersweet chocolate baking bar, broken or chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 6 ounces Ghirardelli or other milk chocolate baking bar, broken or chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate liqueur (optional)

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, vanilla, and butter.
  • Heat over medium heat until the mixture just simmers.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the bittersweet and milk chocolates and chocolate liqueur until completely melted and smooth.
  • Serve over a heat source that will keep the fondue warm, but not hot. This could be a crockpot-type pot or a traditional fondue pot.

For dippers: Try fresh fruit (strawberries, bananas, pears, kiwi), and cubed pieces of Angel Food cake.
