Very good recipe! I made a few changes which worked well: I used Kahlua instead of the cherry brandy and a 50/50 mix of semi-sweet and 60% cacao chips. I used some instant coffee ground and just mixed it in instead of brewing coffee and left out the cinnamon. Last but not least, I doubled the cream and alcohol to make it a little more smooth. All in all, definitely a keeper!

This came out really well, I used about 6 TBS of heavy cream and used Kahula instead of what was listed. I cooked it on the stove until it was thin and then put it in the fondue. We dipped, marshmellows, fresh pineapple, strawberries. I used a hershey kiss fondue set (a christmas gift) and it actually was bubbling. You will need to stir it then.. it can burn a little in the middle. But I liked this recipe, next time I would use choc chip instead of semi sweet, that is a little over powering to eat and I love dark chocolate. next time I would use pretzels, apples and kiwi and I have heard cream cheese cubes are fabulous!!!

First time I made this, it was great. Second time I didn't refer to the recipe until I started having issues!! The extra cream is essential!! If you melt your chocolate and it appears grainy or the texture isn't smooth, add more cream & liquer (I used Bailey's) and whisk. It will smooth out and be great!!

This is THE dessert fondue!!!! I made this for a couples dessert get together on Valentine's and not a one of us could quit eating it! I made one small change, instead of cherry brandy I used 1 1/2 Tbls. cherry extract and 1/2 Tbls. Rum extract!!! Still the best yet! If your looking for a really special, memorable chocolate fondue - This is IT!!!

Very romantic and delicious! I made this on valentines day for my boyfriend. It was extremely easy to make only took a couple min. to melt together. Next time I will put a little more liqueur in it because you couldnt taste it at all. The chocolate hides the flavor. I served it with some little cheesecake bites, big marshmallows, small pieces of angel food cake, strawberries, bananas, and graham cracker sticks. I will definately make again!

I used 6 tbsp of cream, per other reviewer suggestions, but I probably only use 4 tbsp next time. I did not use any of the other ingredients, because my husband preferred just the chocolate flavor. Maybe next time we will be adventurous!

What a hit. This was the first time I've ever made fondue and it was yummy, everyone loved it. I followed some of the suggestions from the reviews, like adding 6 tble of milk instead of 3. I didn't use coffee because I was running late and didn't have time, I used regular brandy, instead of cherry. thanks for the recipe.

Only change was used Amaretto instead of Brandy, also forgot the cinnamon. Made it stove top for a couple minutes then transferred. Kept stirring in the fondue pot and was a bit concerned because it took at least 5 minutes to get completely melty and not be so grainy. 5 stars for flavor and did very well in our electric fondue pot. This was also our first homemade chocolate fondue so we couldn't have asked for better results!

Loved it! I used ghiradelli's double chocolate dipping chocolate (you can get 2.5 lb blocks very reasonable @ Sam's) & I didn't have cherry brandy so I used a tbp of brandy & a tbp of grenadine. Next time I will add anorther tbp of brandy but since my grandsons were enjoying this w/ us, I was leery of using anymore. I heated it up in my fondue pot, over a pot of simmering water & when it was melted, I moved the fondue pot to the table. Served it w/ chunks of pound cake, halved strwaberries, thick banana slices, lrg marshmallows, clementine sections & granny smith apple slices....I think I found my happy place! LOL

Add my vote to all the others! This was great! I used Amaretto (4 Tbsp) and increased the cream to 6 Tbsp. It was really great and veerrrry well received. Next time, though, I'll melt everything first in a saucepan on top of the stove. It took waaayyy toooo long to melt and meld in the fondue pot.

I found this recipe to be a good base for "chocolate fondue with liqueur." I followed others advice- 6 Tbsp. heavy cream & 4 tbsp. of liqueur. I was surprised how easy it really was to do. I made one pot with cherry brandy, one with mint liqueur and one with Irish cream. Couldn’t taste the cinnamon at all so I don’t even know if it is necessary. All 3 fondues received rave reviews and the chocolate kept its consistency nicely within the pots over a low tea light. For dipping- mini cheesecakes, angel food cake squares, potato chips, pretzels, graham cracker sticks, strawberries, bananas, Granny Smith apples, pineapple & dried apricots.
