Recipe: Organic Amaretto-Almond Fondue

There's times when a piece of chocolate is all you need to make your day better - works for me anyways! This fondu recipe from Green & Black's organic chocolate looks so delish...perfect for Valentine's Day.

Ingredients:
1 100g Green & Black’s Milk Chocolate and Almond bar
1/8 cup plus 1 tablespoon Water
2 tablespoons Amaretto

Directions:
Conventional method
Break the chocolate into small pieces and blend in a food processor to break up the whole almonds. The chocolate should resemble breadcrumbs. Put in a saucepan with the water.

Over low heat, stir with a small wire whisk until ingredients are smooth and combined.
Add the Amaretto and stir.

If the resulting sauce is too thick, add a few drops of water and whisk to blend.
Serve with desired fruit and nuts.

If fondue becomes cool and thick, microwave for 10 seconds and stir. Repeat if necessary.

Microwave
Break the chocolate into small pieces and blend in a food processor to break up the whole almonds. Place in a heat-safe bowl with the water.
