Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Fondue
- 12 ounces (2 cups) semisweet chocolate chips
- 6 ounces (1 cup) milk chocolate chips
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
Dippers
- Strawberries
- Bananas
- Marshmallows
- Brownies
- Graham crackers
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In the slow cooker insert, add the semisweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, heavy cream, pure vanilla extract, and salt. Ensure all ingredients are measured accurately for perfect consistency.
- Slow Cook: Set the slow cooker to the low setting. Allow the mixture to cook for one hour, stirring thoroughly every 20 minutes to help the chocolate melt evenly and prevent burning on the sides or bottom.
- Serve Warm: Once the chocolate is fully melted and the fondue is smooth and creamy, switch your slow cooker to the warm setting to keep the fondue at an ideal dipping temperature. Arrange your dippers around the fondue pot and enjoy dipping to your heart’s content.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use high-quality chocolate chips melting uniformly in slow cooking.
- Occasionally stir during the cooking process to avoid burning or sticking.
- Try alternative dippers such as apple slices, pretzels, pound cake pieces, or pineapple chunks for more variety.
- If the fondue gets too thick, you can stir in a bit more warm cream to loosen the texture.
- Leftover fondue can be refrigerated and gently reheated in the slow cooker on warm setting or in a microwave with stirring.
