It's a fondue party!

It's the appropriate way to bring our year to a close!  

Here's the recipe for our fondue...

Chocolate Fondue

Ingredients

• Strawberries
• bite-size chunks of banana
• bite-size chunks of kiwifruit
• bite-size chunks of pineapple
• any fruit, actually!
• bite-size cubes of cake
• crispy rice squares
• chips
• pretzels
• pickles--a sweet and sour experience for the daring!

Chocolate Fondue:

• 1 cup (250 mL) milk chocolate chips or semisweet chocolate chips
• 2/3 cup (150 mL) whipping cream
• 1/2 tsp (2 mL) vanilla

Put chocolate chips into medium heatproof bowl.

Pour cream into small saucepan; heat over medium-high heat until hot and steaming but not boiling. Remove from heat.

Carefully pour hot cream over chocolate chips; let stand for 2 minutes.

Add vanilla; whisk until smooth (about 2 minutes).

Scrape into mini slow cooker or fondue pot. Keep warm on low setting.  Makes approx. 1 1/4 cups.

Bon appétit!
