Thursday Recipe - Chocolate Fondue

We picked up this cute little fondue set at Goodwill. It was still sealed in its original packaging. So of course, I had to mess with it and make chocolate fondue. We also made waffle sticks to dip in it, but that's a different post.

Chocolate Fondue

1 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 T. butter
1/4 - 1/3 c. coconut milk (I used Simple Truth Coconut Milk in the refrigerated carton, it worked great!)
1 small fondue set

Put the chocolate chips, butter, and 2 T. of the coconut milk in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on low power for 1-2 minutes, stirring every 20 seconds or so. Cook only until it is mostly melted and you can stir it smooth. Remove from the microwave and stir in coconut milk, 1 T. at a time, until it is smooth and the consistency of nacho cheese sauce. You want it slightly thick but runny enough to dip things in. Think hot fudge sauce when it's hot.

Set up the fondue set and light the little tea candle. Pour the chocolate sauce into the bowl. Dip to your heart's delight. We used waffle sticks, but you could do marshmallows, fresh fruit, cookies, ice cream, gummi bears, or whatever you think would go well with hot chocolate sauce.
