This is delicious and so easy. I made it for my kids and wish I had used semi-sweet instead of bittersweet chocolate. I made mine in a double boiler which I think is a better way to melt chocolate than a microwave. But it is smooth and so good! Will put the leftover over ice cream:)
delicious – subbed cointreau for the cabernet – may try the cab next time. great consistency. oh also used semi sweet chocolate.
Me and a friend made this recipe, and let it warm in the fondue pot for 30 minutes after. We had it with angel food cake and strawberries. It was the best! A major hit! And when you take it out of the microwave, it will not look like fondue. All the chocolate in mine was at the bottom, but after 5 minutes of mixing, it got all blended in. Must say, if you are using a fondue pot for this, I suggest you let it warm in that for a while. I noticed after letting it cook, it got way thicker and better. Angel food cake and pound cake are fantastic with it, and the strawberries are a great healthier choice! I usually only stick to recipes from people I know, but when I saw how many great reviews it got, I knew I had to try! So great, and you will LOVE!!!!!!
Couldn’t have wine so I left that out and I added a bit more chocolate because we like it thicker. Either way this recipe is great! Hard to mess up and absolutely delicious. Thank you!
3DS qualitty very mucho yummy.
Perfect!! I used Ghiradelli bittersweet morsels and followed the recipe exactly except subbed Cointreau for the wine. It was delicious and not too sweet!! Wonderful recipe!
This is an excellent recipe. I love the versatility and fact that this works for so many food preferences and diets. Any leftover sauce can be used as well to make candy ball by adding finely chopped fruit, nuts, coconut. Yummy.
This is soooo easy to make and delicious. It’s always a hit. I try to use high quality chocolate, but have even made it with generic kind and it’s still good.
I serve it with:
strawberries
bananas
pretzels
small chocolate chip cookies
marshmallows
graham crackers
Super easy and delicious.
Made it right in the Stoneware Fondue pot. Took a total of 3 minutes to make. Used a 10oz bag of bittersweet girardelli morsels and 1/2 cup of semi-sweet. Increased the heavy cream and added 1 Tbls of sugar to match the increase in chocolate. 2 minutes in the microwave and then used a whisk and it was shiny and smooth and lovely. WOW – so easy!
