This fondue relies on just three pantry staples to create a smooth, pourable chocolate dip with a rich, glossy finish. Warming the cream before adding the chocolate ensures a silky texture without any graininess. Serve it in a fondue pot or small saucepan alongside fruit, cookies, or marshmallows for dipping.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Method

  1. Pour the heavy cream into a small saucepan and warm over medium-low heat until it just begins to steam, 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.

  2. Reduce heat to low and add the chocolate chips, stirring constantly with a whisk or silicone spatula until fully melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy, about 3 minutes.

  3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

  4. Transfer the fondue to a fondue pot or serving bowl set over a warmer to keep it smooth and pourable. Serve immediately with fruit, cookies, or marshmallows for dipping.
