Chocolate Frangelico Fondue

[cougars_catnip]

This is pure chocolate indulgence, with a whiff of hazelnut. Keep in mind that fondue is more versatile than you may think, it's also a warm sauce to drizzle over cake, ice cream, or yogurt. Be sure to start with a high-quality chocolate for the best flavor and texture.

Ingredients
1/3 cup half-and-half
1/4 cup milk
8 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped

...I ran across this in a 'read network' list of friends' doings, and it immediately made me join this community: thanks! I may never make it, but it cheered me up to think I *might*...!

Aww but just take a look at how easy it is to make. You really should try it at least once.

....hmmm, I'm an extreme minimalist: as in, I eat the chocolate, let the cake and sugar and booze be, and then maybe eat more chocolate...! To me, drinking water is an ingredient, and beyond that gets too fancy...
