Pioneer Woman Cheese Fondue Recipes

CHOCOLATE FONDUE

Steps:

• Heat the cream in a saucepan over low to medium heat until warmed through but not bubbling; add the bittersweet chocolate, semisweet chocolate, amaretto and vanilla and stir until the chocolate is melted. Pour the mixture into a fondue pot.
• Arrange your dipping ingredients on a platter and serve!

CLASSIC CHEESE FONDUE

Steps:

• Toss the Gruyere and Emmental with the flour in a medium bowl.
• Combine the wine and garlic in a fondue pot or medium saucepan and bring to a simmer. Gradually add the cheese mixture while stirring constantly, simmering until the cheese is incorporated and thoroughly melted. Stir in the mustard, nutmeg and cherry brandy if using.
• If you are using a fondue pot, set it over its burner. Otherwise, pour the mixture into a slow cooker and set it to "warm." Serve with an assortment of dippers such as baguette cubes, sliced vegetables and sliced fruit.

SLOW-COOKER FONDUE

Steps:

• Add the wine to a 1.5-quart slow cooker and turn to high. Allow to heat for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and let simmer in the hot wine for 1 minute.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss together the Gruyere and Swiss cheeses, cornstarch, nutmeg, salt and pepper.
• Add the cheese mixture to the hot wine and cook for 30 minutes on high. Turn to low and cook for another 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.
• To serve, stir the fondue to make sure everything is amalgamated. Place the apple slices, cauliflower florets, bread and skewers on a platter and serve.
