Ingredients

1/2 pound bittersweet chocolate chopped
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons framboise, kirsch, or cognac
pinch kosher salt

Accompaniment of your choice - ideas include:

strawberries
dried fruit such as pears, peaches and mangos
pound cake
bananas

apple

Instructions

In a small fondue pot over very low heat, or in a double boiler over simmering water, combine the chocolate and cream and cook, stirring frequently, until the chocolate has completely melted. Add the framboise, and salt and stir to combine.
Before serving, make sure the heat source under the fondue pot is set to very low just to keep the chocolate warm. Or, if making in a double boiler, transfer the warm chocolate mixture to a flameproof serving dish or set on a raised trivet over tea lights. Serve right away with fondue forks and the accompaniments for dipping.
