Strawberries with chocolate sauce ... yumm! How about banana with chocolate sauce?

Or pound cake with chocolate sauce?

Or maybe all of the above, plus more?

Let's make some chocolate fondue sauce the easy way. All you'll need is some baking chocolate, heavy cream and a microwave.

I use different kinds of baking chocolate. Below are some of the ones I had handy. You can make it as dark or milky as you want. Use semi-sweet for a milkier sauce or dark chocolate for a darker sauce. You can also use a combination to get the desired taste.

Use one ounce of chocolate for every 1/4 cup of heavy whipping cream. These 2 squares of chocolate equal one ounce. It makes it easy to break off the amount you need from the bar.

Below is a different brand. They're already available in individual pieces and 5 of them is equivalent to roughly 1 ounce. It doesn't have to be exact as this recipe is forgiving.

I made a lot as I had guests so I have here 6 oz of broken chocolate pieces and 1 1/2 cups of heavy whipping cream.

Combine the ingredients in a microwavable glass bowl.

Microwave until mixture is thickened, stirring every 30 seconds or so. Transfer to fondue pot.

Serve with an assortment of fresh fruits. The chocolate sauce also goes well with marshmallows, pound cake, dried fruits and nuts.

Oooh - I have to try this - looks incredible @offoodandart

OMG... This is so mouth watering recipe. I am a chocolate lover plus the different fruits. I am pretty sure that if I'll try this, my day will be as colorful as the fruits and sweet as the chocolate. GOOD JOB @offoodandart

Welcome, kababayan! It's nice to meet and connect with you @ra-moon-ra!

The great thing is that the chocolate fondue is so easy to make and yet it's so wonderful! Can go well with fresh mangga or dried mangoes, right? Missing the mangga variety we have there.

Hi Maya! Yes, please try it. I'm sure you have other interesting fruits there that would go well with the chocolate sauce.

No pressure to make it but if and when you get a chance to make it, could you do a #myturn on it? Please see the MyTurn posts below. There is a section that explains what it is.

I never thought of mixing different types of chocolate to create my own blend for chocolate fondue. What a great idea, thank you @offoodandart. My favorite is chocolate and banana.
