Ingredients

For the dipping fondue chocolate:

• 1 cup (8 ounces) heavy cream
• Pinch salt
• 12 ounces milk or dark chocolate (chips or roughly chopped bar)

For dipping:

• Strawberries
• Banana pieces cut into 1-inch chunks
• Dried apricots
• Apple slices
• Candied ginger

Method

1. Heat the cream with a pinch of salt over medium heat in a small saucepan until tiny bubbles show and begins to lightly and slowly simmer.
2. Remove from heat, add the chocolate, and whisk until smooth and fully incorporated.
3. Transfer the chocolate mix to a fondue pot heated at low or with a low flame, or serve straight from the pot.
4. Arrange the dip-ables on a platter or plates around the chocolate pot.
5. Use a fondue fork, bamboo skewer, seafood fork, or salad fork to dip the fruit pieces and other dip-ables into the hot melted chocolate mixture. Eat immediately.
6. If the fondue begins to feel a little stiff, add a tablespoon of heavy cream and stir. It will help it go a little longer. Eventually, it will cook down though, and you may need to start a new pot.
