Almost anything tastes better dipped in chocolate. Use your imagination and offer cubes of your favorite cake and sliced fruit for dipping. You could even include small chocolate chip, shortbread, peanut butter or oreo cookies which can be dipped directly into the fondue without using a fondue fork.

RECIPE INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup whipping cream

5 tablespoons (about) water

12 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped

Whisk in remaining 3 tablespoons water (or substitute with 3 tablespoons liqueur of choice; see variations listed below). Transfer to fondue pot and keep warm over fondue burner.
