Cheese Fondue

Lacey needed to make fondue for her teen living final.  This is what we came up with....

Cheese Fondue
1 1/2 c. milk OR chicken broth OR some of both
4 c. cheddar cheese sauce
1 c. cheddar cheese, grated
1 t. garlic powder OR 2 -3 t. fresh garlic, pressed
1-2 T.  Worchestershire sauce
1/2 t. pepper
1-2 t. mustard powder
Stir together over low heat until melted and combined well.  Place in warm crock pot until serving time.

For Chocolate Fondue we used my recipe for Choice Chocolate Topping in the Atkinson Cookbook on page 199.

Chocolate Fondue....healthy version..

Laureen Raff was telling me about her fondue recipe.   I have adapted it to use honey instead of maple syrup like she uses.

Chocolate Fondue....the healthy way!!
1 c. coconut oil, melted
1/3 c. raw honey, melted
1 t. vanilla extract
dash of salt
2 to 4 T. Cocoa (to taste)
Place coconut oil in glass bowl and melt in warm water bath or warm setting on oven.  Do the same for the honey.  Then combine all the ingredients together in blender or bowl & mix well.  Pour into crockpot set on warm or low.  Great for dipping all kinds of things....strawberries, bananas, apples, pineapple, pretzels, cake, marshmallows, & more

Can also dip strawberries and freeze for 20 minutes to harden.  or  pour into molds and made into chocolate bars.
