Chocolate Fondue

Melting chocolate can be slightly tricky but here are a few tips that make it easy.

Use a double boiler or place a bowl over a pan of simmering water.

When microwaving, stop every 20-30 seconds and give the chocolate a stir.

If using a fondue pot, use the lowest setting.

Adding a tablespoon of butter or coconut oil at the very end will add a beautiful sheen to the chocolate.

Some of the best dippers include:

Strawberries

Apples

Bananas

Shortbread Cookies

Pound Cake

Madeline Cookies

Peanut Butter Balls (Mix together 1 1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar, 1/2 cup peanut butter, 3 tablespoons of softened butter and shape into balls. Chill a few hours before setting out to be dipped)
