Green & Black’s Organic Amaretto-Almond Fondue

Ingredients:

1 100g Green & Black’s Milk Chocolate and Almond bar
1/8 cup plus 1 tablespoon Water
2 tablespoons Amaretto
Directions:

Conventional method
Break the chocolate into small pieces and blend in a food processor to break up the whole almonds. The chocolate should resemble breadcrumbs. Put in a saucepan with the water.
Over low heat, stir with a small wire whisk until ingredients are smooth and combined.
Add the Amaretto and stir.
If the resulting sauce is too thick, add a few drops of water and whisk to blend.
Serve with desired fruit and nuts.
If fondue becomes cool and thick, microwave for 10 seconds and stir. Repeat if necessary.

Microwave
Break the chocolate into small pieces and blend in a food processor to break up the whole almonds. Place in a heat-safe bowl with the water.
In a microwave, melt chocolate in 10-20 second intervals, whisking in between.
Do this until blended and warm.
Suggested dippables: Strawberries, peach slices, grapes and almonds.
Makes: 2-3 servings
