CHOCOLATE FONDUE
By The Canadian Living Test Kitchen
Choose fruit that's easy to hold as you dip slices into this luscious mixture. Apples, pears, strawberries and pineapple are ideal. A firm white cake cut into cubes is great for dipping too. The chocolate will stay soft enough for dipping for up to an hour; if it begins to set, microwave it at high for 15 to 20 seconds. Makes 2 cups (500 mL)
Ingredients:
6 oz bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped           (175 g)
4 oz milk chocolate, finely chopped                   (125 g)
3/4 cup whipping cream                               (175 mL)
2 tbsp amaretto, brandy or rum (optional)            (25 mL)
Preparation:
Place bittersweet and milk chocolates in shallow heatproof glass bowl. In saucepan, bring cream to boil; pour over chocolate, whisking until melted. Whisk in amaretto (if using).
