My kids wanted a snack of the chocolate persuasion yesterday,so this was one way of combining chocolate with some healthy apples. However, the fonue was so good we started looking for more food items we could dip into this melty goodness.
Before you knew it strawberries and bananas were being dunked and then we moved onto pound cake, marshmallows and graham crackers. It was all delicious. And filling. And probably fattening, but nothing a few hours at the vineyard won't burn off.
Anyway, if you are looking to satisfy a chocolate urge, this will do nicely. Using sweetened condensed milk as the base made it easier to melt as some chocolate easily seizes and creates hardened bits in the fondue. It was perfect!
Combine a can of sweetened condensed milk, 1 cup chocolate chips and 10 chopped peppermint patties.
Cook over low heat until melted.
Serve with apple slices, strawberries, bananas, pound cake...whatever you like!

Oh this sounds fantastic!!! I love chocolate mint but never have had it in fondue/dip before! Brilliant!
OMG! I need chocolate NOW!
by the way how long does this stay molten?
Um, wow. Just wow. That looks like heaven in a bowl. Thanks for the condensed milk tip too!
Oh wow this los incredible! I love that little dish too!
Adding Peppermint Patties is a stroke of genius.
OK now this sounds good. Yeah. I am going to the freezer now to get a frozen peppermint patty to nosh on (or 3)
Have. Mercy.
I really wish I hadn’t seen this…I have everything I’d need already in my pantry!
I think it should just be poured in a glass with a big straw…..
Wow-I love the idea of using peppermint patties!
Absolutely crazy yummy sounding. The peppermint patties idea is so great!
Wow mint with apples. I would have never thought of that but it does sound nice and refreshing in place of caramel for a change!
