Ingredients

• 240 ml double or whipping cream
• 225 g dark or semi-sweet chocolate, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp Butter
• 1 tbsp Sugar (optional)
• 1 pinch Salt
• 300 g strawberries
• 2 bananas, thickly sliced
• 200 g pineapple, cut into chunks
• marshmallows, for dipping (optional)

Method

1. Arrange the fruit on a platter with skewers or fondue forks.
2. Heat the cream in a small pan over medium heat until it just starts to simmer at the edges.
3. Take off the heat, add the chocolate, butter, sugar (if using) and salt, and leave for 1 minute.
4. Stir slowly from the middle outwards until the sauce is smooth and glossy.
5. Pour into a fondue pot over a low flame, or a warmed bowl, and serve straight away. Rewarm gently if it thickens.

Tips

• Marshmallows usually contain gelatine; leave them out for vegetarians.
• Stir in a spoonful of orange liqueur or a pinch of chilli for grown-ups.
