The Original Melting Pot Chocolate Fondue Recipe

[ed.  – We like to use the ceramic insert of the Trudeau 3-in-1 Alto Electric Fondue Set, inserted inside and on top of water in the stainless steel fondue pot, which works best for this chocolate fondue, but you can use any double-pot fondue set, a simple double broiler, a traditional fondue pot such as an Emile Henry, or even a stainless mixing bowl over a pot on the stove will work.  If using a double broiler insert, such as the Trudeau fondue pot comes equipped with, insert the top bowl over simmering water, which goes in the lower pot.]

Heat the chocolate in the pot over the boiling water, until the chocolate is melting, stirring constantly [ed. – do this part on the stove over medium high heat, the Trudeau 3-in-1 Alto Electric Fondue Set works on any kind of burner, but read your instructions if using a ceramic or other pot].  Add peanut butter and stir until blended.  Keep fondue warm over low heat for serving [ed. – do this part on the electric fondue plate].

Enjoy with fresh strawberries, bananas, cheesecake, Rice Krispies Treats®, marshmallows, pound cake and brownies for dipping.

[TRY THIS ONE TOO… THE MELTING POT’S FLAMING TURTLE RECIPE]

The Flaming Turtle just adds 4 oz. more chocolate, 1/4 c. caramel ice cream topping and 1 T. rum and 3 T. chopped pecans instead of the peanut butter.
