Chocolate Caramel Fondue


This is a wonderful dip for fresh fruit, cookies, or just by the spoonful.  It’s easy to make for a last minute dessert and wows a crowd every time.  It also keeps well in the fridge for a few days, so make plenty.  I added caramel to sweeten it up a bit and add extra flavor.  You can either make your own caramel or use a really good store bought one.  I used a really good salted caramel sauce from Trader Joe’s. 
Enjoy!

Chocolate Caramel Fondue

½ cup cream
1 cup semi sweet chocolate, chopped (chocolate chips are fine)
½ cup caramel sauce

Over a double boiler (a heat proof bowl set over simmering water), combine the chocolate and cream
Stir often over low heat until mixture is smooth and chocolate is melted
Off the heat, add the caramel and stir until blended
Dip fruit in right away or refrigerate up to 3 days or so (warm it back up over the double boiler or for 15 seconds in the microwave to make the chocolate liquidly again)
