White Chocolate Cherries Jubilee
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup white chocolate
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup premium cherry pie filling
- 2 tablespoons rum, 151 proof, for flambé
- Sliced strawberries and bananas, pineapple chunks, marshmallows, cubes of pound cake or cheesecake for dipping
Instructions
- Soften chocolate in the microwave. Heat milk in a fondue pot. Once it's hot, add softened chocolate. Stir to a smooth consistency.
- Spoon the cherries into a pool in the middle of the chocolate.
- To serve, pour rum over the chocolate. Leave a small amount on the spoon, and light with a lighter. Use the flaming spoon to ignite the rum on the chocolate. As it burns, slowly swirl the cherries into the chocolate. Allow the flame to burn out.
- Place dipping items on skewers and dip them into the fondue. Be careful as you reach the sides and bottom of the pot; the chocolate tends to be hotter there.
