The chocolate fondue is as simple as melting some chocolate. We use our sterno (non-electric) fondue pot for the chocolate. It mimics a double boiler. The chocolate can be done in either. If you don’t have two fondue pots or don’t want to clean the one you use for the main course, simply melt the chocolate in a double boiler on the stove and keep it warm until just before bringing it to the table to transfer to the fondue pot. The chocolate recipe is simply dark chocolate nibs or chips and a smidge of coconut oil. You could add a dollop of almond butter too for an awesome flavor. For dipping, strawberries, banana slices, apple slices, grapes, or any thing else you want to cover in chocolate. If you are feeling adventurous you could make our clean eating brownies to serve as a dipper.
