Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 10 oz. chopped dairy free chocolate
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Flavorings
- Additional flavorings as desired (e.g., cinnamon, chili powder, or orange zest)
Instructions
- Melt Chocolate: Gently melt together the chopped dairy free chocolate and almond milk in a heavy bottomed saucepan over low heat, stirring or whisking regularly to prevent burning. Be careful not to let the mixture boil or simmer.
- Adjust Consistency: When the chocolate is completely melted and glossy, check the texture. If the fondue is too thick, add additional almond milk a few tablespoons at a time until reaching your desired consistency.
- Serve Warm: Serve the fondue warm with your favorite dippers such as fresh fruit (berries, pineapple, apples), gluten free pretzels, animal crackers, or cut up brownies and cake.
Notes
- This chocolate fondue is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser and works great for gluten free and dairy free diets.
- Try adding spices like cinnamon or a splash of your favorite liqueur for personalized flavor.
- Use a heavy bottomed pan to prevent chocolate from scorching.
- Serve immediately to maintain warm, smooth texture as chocolate can harden when cooled.
- Substitute almond milk with coconut milk for an even richer flavor.
