Creamy Chocolate Fondue – Jo Ann Jones
“Fondue is a great and fun way of serving a small group
of guests (up to 10) with a different twist on entertaining. It promotes conversations and laughter in
which the food you are serving is the entertainment. Fondue is best served on a round table, where
all guests have an equal access to the pot with their fondue dippers. Try it, it is fun to prepare and even more fun
to watch your guests enjoy themselves. “
