Dark Chocolate & Raspberry Fondue 5.21 Blame Booze and Melville

“We’re fondue purists, Grandma.”

Ingredients:

• 2 cups dark chocolate pieces

• 1 14-oz sweetened condensed milk

• ½ cup raspberry jam (preferably seedless)

• 2 oz raspberry liqueur

• 2 tbsp powdered sugar

• 1 tsp vanilla

• ¼ tsp salt

Directions:

1. Place a large saucepan over medium low heat. Add the dark chocolate and sweetened condensed milk. Stir continuously until the chocolate has melted.

2. Stir in the raspberry jam, liqueur, powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt until well-combined.

3. Allow to simmer for about 5 minutes to allow to thicken. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.

4. Serve with your choice of things to dip. Some examples, marshmallows, brownies, cheesecake, apples, strawberries, and banana.

We’ve got another class Friday Night Dinner dessert, chocolate fondue. However, I didn’t want to just melt some chocolate and call it a day. This is a rich and creamy dark chocolate fondue infused with raspberry jam and raspberry liqueur, although, you can definitely leave out the alcohol if you so choose. This episode is titled Blame Booze and Melville, so I had to include booze somewhere in this dish. I decided to use raspberry flavors for this fondue as a nod to my penultimate dish for season 4- raspberry souffle- which happened to be another Friday Night Dinner dessert. I think Emily is a big fan of raspberries, and she would want to have them in her chocolate fondue. I also have another raspberry-themed dish planned for another penultimate episode for an upcoming season.

Happy cooking from the Hollow!
