Chocolate-Hazelnut Fondue

8 ounces chopped semisweet chocolate

1/3 cup cream

Cook over medium heat until melted and smooth. (I used a double boiler.)

Stir in 1/3 cup hazelnut syrup and a pinch of salt.

Transfer to a fondue pot and place over a low flame.

Serve with angel food cake cubes, strawberries, mini pretzels, dried apricot, bananas, strawberry marshmallows

Makes about 1.25 cups.

NOTES:

• I doubled this for my HS mom party (1-22-11) and apparently Holly has made it before for a youth group social night (1-30-06). Good both times!
• Used Ghirardelli Candy Making & Dipping Bar for the chocolate
• Survived nicely in the fondue pot for my 4 hour party and looks like the leftover bit would reheat well also.
• It's fairly thin so the angel food cake cubes survived the dipping process well.
