Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 8 ounces milk chocolate chips
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder (optional)
- 1 tablespoon liqueur like Grand Marnier or Kahlua (optional)
Instructions
- Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, heavy cream, butter, and espresso powder (if using) into a small slow cooker.
- Set the slow cooker to low heat. Do not stir for the first 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to begin melting evenly.
- After 30 minutes, stir the mixture gently until it is completely smooth and velvety.
- Stir in the vanilla extract and your chosen liqueur (if using).
- Keep the fondue on the ‘Warm’ setting for serving. Stir occasionally.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dippers.
Notes
- For a thicker fondue, reduce the heavy cream by 1/4 cup.
- If you do not have a slow cooker, melt the chocolate and cream together over a double boiler until smooth.
- Keep the heat setting low; high heat can cause the chocolate to seize or burn.
