- 11 oz Milk Chocolate See post for options and variations
- ½ cup Heavy Cream
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted Butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract See post for more ideas - and different amounts needed - for other flavourings.
- pinch Salt
Place your choice of chocolate - chocolate chips, a chopped chocolate bar, etc - into a glass mixing bowl, and put aside.
Measure heavy whipping cream, butter and a pinch of salt into a small saucepan, bring JUST to a boil over medium heat.
Remove from heat, and stir flavor extract(s) or other flavorings of your choice (See post for details!).
Pour hot cream mixture into bowl of chocolate chips. Let sit for 3 minutes.
Starting in the middle of the bowl, slowly start stirring the chocolate and cream until all of the chocolate is melted the cream disappeared into it – it should be smooth.
Pour chocolate mixture into your chocolate fondue pot - on the warm setting - or into a mini slow cooker, set to low heat.
Serve with your choice of dippers - enjoy!
See post for variations and dipper suggestions.
I do NOT recommend using a double boiler for making any kind of ganache.
