Step 1: Prepare the Double Boiler - Fill the bottom pot of your double boiler with water, making sure it doesn’t touch the bottom of the top pot or bowl. Bring the water to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Step 2: Melt the Chocolate - In the top pot or a heatproof bowl, add the 6 ounces of chocolate chips or chopped chocolate. Allow it to melt slowly, stirring occasionally with your spatula to ensure even melting.
Step 3: Add the Heavy Whipping Cream - Once the chocolate is fully melted and smooth, pour in the 1/3 cup of heavy whipping cream. Stir until the mixture is fully combined and reaches your desired consistency. If you prefer a thinner fondue, add a little more cream.
Step 4: Transfer to a Fondue Pot - Carefully transfer the melted chocolate mixture to a fondue pot or serving bowl. If using a fondue pot, keep the heat on low to maintain a warm temperature.
Step 5: Prepare Your Dippers - While your chocolate is staying warm, prepare your assortment of dippers. Arrange them beautifully on a platter, ready for indulging.
Step 6: Enjoy! - Grab your skewers or forks and dive into the deliciousness! Dip your chosen dippers into the warm chocolate and savor each bite.
