A recipe to make any chocolate fan swoon!
If you have your own chocolate fountain, then you should know the art of creating a delicious chocolate fountain recipe.
Creating a chocolate fountain recipe starts off with pre-melting your chocolate. It is recommended to store your chocolates in a microwavable zip-lock bag. You can then add half a cup of vegetable oil per 5 lbs. of chocolate to the bag and heat it in a microwave for 3 minutes on medium heat. After 3 minutes, remove the chocolate and smashed it to smaller pieces. Heat the chocolate again on lower heat for 3 to 5 minutes. You can then pour in your yummy melted chocolate to you chocolate fountain.
A chocolate fountain recipe is without life until delicious dipping items are added. If you are holding a party, you should have enough foods gathered on the table. Everything you serve should be in bite size. Just a few reminders, try not to use toothpicks as they tend to break off and may leave some of the food items into the chocolate fountain. Stay away from crumbly foods, as they tend to be quite messy.
A great chocolate fountain recipe is composed of about 5-8 different dipping items. You can allot 2 to 5 fruit pieces per head. You can either use dried fruits, but fresh fruits are very popular in parties. When choosing a fruit, remember that the fruit should be firm enough to hold the weight of the chocolate. Some of the best fruits that are recommended are strawberries, apple, melon, seedless grapes and kiwi.
Remember to add in marshmallows squares, bit size fudge, mini donuts, cookies and other pastries. You can also offer pretzels and potato chips. If you want something chunky, add in peanut brittles or rice krispies. When it comes to chocolate fountain recipes, the possibilities are endless. So tinker with your creative mind and think up on how you can spice up the party!
