Chocolate Fondue
Every Valentines day my little family does fondue for dinner. We also do it for our anniversary which is also New Year’s Eve. We always do both a chocolate and cheese version and it’s always a hit with everyone. We also try to invite people over when we do fondue other times of the year. It’s just a fun dinner. When we moved to Finland and didn’t have a fondue pot we bought each other them for Christmas. I promise you’re going to love this chocolate fondue!

Notes
Since you’re adding milk and cream I don’t recommend using milk chocolate or it will be too sweet. But you can use all dark or all semi sweet if you prefer! I love doing all dark but my husband says it’s too dark so I typically use my recipe above and everyone is happy.
This is also delicious with a teaspoon of almond extract instead of vanilla.
You can also do this in a small sauce pan and move to a mini crockpot to keep warm after melted.
