Low Fat Chocolate Fondue Recipes

LIGHTER CHOCOLATE FONDUE (OR GANACHE)

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.
