Chocolate Mint Fondue Recipes

CHOCOLATE MINT FONDUE

Steps:

• Combine chocolate and cream in the top of a double boiler set over simmering water or in a metal bowl placed in a pan of simmering water.
• Heat until the chocolate is melted, stirring constantly. (Alternatively, combine chocolate and cream in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted, stirring every 30 to 45 seconds. Be careful not to let the chocolate burn.).
• Pour into a warm fondue pot or into a serving bowl that can be kept warm. Add liqueur; stir gently to combine. Keep warm over low heat.

CHOCOLATE MINT CANDY (FUDGE)

Steps:

• In a heavy saucepan, melt chocolate chips with 1 cup milk.
• Remove from the heat; stir in vanilla.
• Spread half into a waxed paper-lined 8-in. square pan; (I personally prefer to line the pan with foil and grease the foil with butter) chill for 10 minutes or until firm.
• Meanwhile, in a heavy saucepan over low heat, cook and stir candy coating with remaining milk until coating is melted and mixture is smooth.
• Stir in peppermint extract and food coloring.
• Spread over bottom layer; chill for 10 minutes or until firm.
• Warm remaining chocolate mixture if necessary; spread over mint layer.
• Chill for 2 hours or until firm.
• Remove from pan; cut into 1-in. squares.
