This dark chocolate fondue recipe is as basic as they come.
Simply gather cream, chocolate, and a liqueur of your choice and you’re ready to go.
I recommend cognac, but you can use anything, even non-alcoholic flavors such as coffee or vanilla.
Have a fondue party and enjoy an interactive evening with your guests.
Did you know that dark chocolate (in small amounts) is actually good for you as it contains anti-oxidant rich flavonoids and could help lower your cholesterol levels?
