LIGHTER CHOCOLATE FONDUE (OR GANACHE)
This is an amazingly dark, rich and sinful fondue with a lot less fat. Make sure to use the best quality chocolate you can get your hands on, since that is your main flavor here. I have listed the things we like to dip in our fondue; other ideas are cherries, dried apricots, walnut halves, marshmallows or anything else that sounds good to you! This could also be used as a ganache. I always wondered if I could make a lower fat ganache without whipping cream, and here it is (and surprisingly, it takes almost the same)! Use to frost cupcakes or fill cakes. Slightly adapted recipe from Ellie Krieger's Healthy Appetite on Food Network.

Steps:
- Cut angel food cake into bite size wedges.
- Peel and cut banana into one inch chunks. Core and slice the pear or apple.
- Place the bananas, pears and strawberries on a serving platter. Squeeze orange wedge over banana and pear (or apple) and mix gently.
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together cocoa powder and sugar. Slowly pour in evaporated milk, all the while whisking, to make a paste.
- Place the saucepan over low to medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until chocolate base is simmering.
- Remove pot from heat and whisk in vanilla and chocolate. Keep stirring until chocolate is completely melted. The mixture will be quite thick.
- Transfer chocolate to a fondue pot to keep warm. If you do not have a fondue pot, try serving the fondue in a warmed ceramic bowl.
- Dip fruit in chocolate. Spoon chocolate over angel food cake (it is too delicate for dipping) and enjoy!
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator. Rewarm by microwaving 35-45 seconds, stirring every 10 seconds.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Put the marshmallows in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet or other ovenproof saucepan or skillet; they can be slightly layered on top of each other. Place a sheet of aluminum foil on top to cover the skillet. Bake on the middle shelf of the oven for about 15 minutes.
- Remove the skillet from the oven, remove the foil and raise the oven temperature to low broil. Put the skillet back in the oven and broil until the marshmallows are toasted and browned, 1 to 2 minutes. (Do not walk away from the oven. The marshmallows can burn fast.)
- Wrap the handle of the skillet with an oven mitt or thick kitchen towel (the handle is extremely hot), then serve the marshmallows alongside the bar condiments, letting your guests build their own creations with the cookies, graham crackers, nuts, sauces and fruit.

7 COOKING TIPS FOR MAKING LOW-FAT FONDUE - SHEKNOWS
From sheknows.com
- Use lower fat cheeses. The most important part of a good fondue is obviously the cheese. Regular fat cheeses contain about 9 grams of fat per ounce (much of it saturated) while lower fat cheeses have about 5 grams of fat per ounce.
- Add texture with a bean puree. Another way to make a thick, rich fondue without adding more cheese is to add a white bean puree using great northern, cannellini or navy beans.
- Flavor with wine. Adding wine, beer or another liquor will give the fondue another layer of taste without a lot of calories and will help balance out the other flavors.
- Season with herbs and spices. Herbs and spices like rosemary, thyme, sage, curry, chili powder and saffron will deepen the flavor of your fondue without adding fat or calories.
- Fire it up. If you love pepper jack cheese or simply the fire from chilies, add pureed peppers, like roasted red bell peppers or poblanos or chipotle in adobo sauce.
10 BEST FONDUE RECIPES - THE SPRUCE EATS
From thespruceeats.com
- Cheddar Beer Fondue. Fans of beer and cheese dip will love this fragrant beer and cheddar fondue. Instead of the classic brandy that gives traditional fondue its texture, add a mild beer like lager, kölsch, or bock.
- Cheese Fondue with Cognac or Brandy. This classic Swiss fondue pairs perfectly with snowy days. This traditional recipe calls for Kirschwasser, a cherry-based brandy.
- Easy Chocolate Fondue. Use either high-quality semisweet chocolate chips, chopped chocolate bars, or chocolate melting discs for this simple chocolate fondue.
- French Onion Soup Fondue. With a flavor profile similar to French onion soup, this warming fondue tastes fresh and exciting. Gruyere cheese has the same melty texture as your favorite soup topper.
- Vegan Mushroom Fondue. Lovers of plant-based cheese get their fondue fun, too. Nutritional yeast, soy sauce, and miso give this vegan fondue its signature cheesy flavor, while mushrooms add an umami element.
