1. Dip. 2. Swirl. 3. Bite. 4. Say Mmmm. 5. Repeat. Dessert fondue recipes aren't just dessert, they're an experience. Easy to prepare, too. The hardest part is choosing between the caramel, berry and chocolate fondue recipes. But, go ahead. Give it a try.
Chocolate Fondue Recipes
Remember, dessert fondues are best served over very low flame in a ceramic fondue pot or butter warmer.
Coconut Fondue Recipe
This dessert fondue recipe can barely be called a recipe. It's so easy it's cheating, almost.
1 16–ounce carton coconut pecan frosting
1/4 to 1/2 cup heavy cream
Warm the frosting in a small saucepan. Stir in the heavy cream to desired thickness. Transfer to a warm fondue pot.
Serve with pound cake, banana rounds, apple wedges, and marshmallows. Serves 6 or more.
Caramel-Pecan Fondue Recipe
This is a very rich dessert fondue recipe. It takes a little longer to prepare than the others, but it's well worth it.
1/3 cup (about 3 ounces) butter
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2/3 cup corn syrup
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
3 tablespoon Rum or Cognac (optional)
1/3 cup finely chopped pecans, divided
In a medium non-stick saucepan, warm the butter, sugars and corn syrup until the butter has melted and the sugars have dissolved. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a low boil. Let it boil, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.
Add the heavy cream. (You may find it easier to remove the pan from the heat while stirring in the cream.) Heat and stir for another 5 minutes. Stir in the Rum or Cognac, if desired, and pecans, reserving 1 tablespoon of the nuts for garnish. Transfer to a warm fondue pot and sprinkle the remaining pecans on top.
This recipe pairs well with pound cake, angle-food cake, marshmallows, and just about any fruit. It can be prepared a day ahead and warmed before serving. Serves 6 or more.
Very Berry Fondue Recipe
Berries are the latest thing in dessert fondue recipes, and require little sweetening.
1 1/2 pounds fresh or frozen berries, (strawberries and raspberries are best)
1/4 cup sugar
Place the berries in a food processor or blender and puree until smooth. Press the puree through a strainer or cheesecloth (to remove the seeds) and into a medium saucepan. Add the sugar and heat until the sugar has dissolved. Transfer to a warm fondue pot.
This recipe may be prepared 2 or 3 days in advance. Serve with shortcake or pound cake, and your choice of cheese cubes. Serves 6 or more.
