Best Low Fat Chocolate Fondue Recipes
LIGHTER CHOCOLATE FONDUE (OR GANACHE)
This is an amazingly dark, rich and sinful fondue with a lot less fat. Make sure to use the best quality chocolate you can get your hands on, since that is your main flavor here. I have listed the things we like to dip in our fondue; other ideas are cherries, dried apricots, walnut halves, marshmallows or anything else that sounds good to you! This could also be used as a ganache. I always wondered if I could make a lower fat ganache without whipping cream, and here it is (and surprisingly, it takes almost the same)! Use to frost cupcakes or fill cakes. Slightly adapted recipe from Ellie Krieger's Healthy Appetite on Food Network.

Steps:
- Cut angel food cake into bite size wedges.
- Peel and cut banana into one inch chunks. Core and slice the pear or apple.
- Place the bananas, pears and strawberries on a serving platter. Squeeze orange wedge over banana and pear (or apple) and mix gently.
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together cocoa powder and sugar. Slowly pour in evaporated milk, all the while whisking, to make a paste.
- Place the saucepan over low to medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until chocolate base is simmering.
- Remove pot from heat and whisk in vanilla and chocolate. Keep stirring until chocolate is completely melted. The mixture will be quite thick.
- Transfer chocolate to a fondue pot to keep warm. If you do not have a fondue pot, try serving the fondue in a warmed ceramic bowl.
- Dip fruit in chocolate. Spoon chocolate over angel food cake (it is too delicate for dipping) and enjoy!
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator. Rewarm by microwaving 35-45 seconds, stirring every 10 seconds.

Steps:
- Place all ingredients in a ceramic fondue pot over low heat. Stir constantly until the mixture is melted and smooth. Do not allow to bubble. Arrange an assortment of bite-sized dipping foods on a lazy Susan around fondue pot. Some suggestions are strawberries, bananas, apples, grapes, cherries, pound cake, marshmallows, raisins and shelled nuts. Spear with fondue forks or wooden skewers, dip, swirl and enjoy!
