Cloaked Apples and Carrots in Fondue
Fresh carrots
Fresh apples
toothpicks
1 pound Guittard's milk chocolate
1/2 cup half and half
Wash and scrape the carrots clean.
Cut into chunks if large. If using baby
carrots, leave as they are. Cut the apples into wedges. Place the
carrots in a microwave safe dish, cover, and microwave on high power for
about 5 minutes per pound of carrots.
When tender, allow to cool. Arrange an
apple slice and a carrot chunk on each toothpick and place on a tray. In
a clean glass batter bowl, place the chocolate and then pour over the
half and half.
Microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir to
finish the melting.
When completely melted, pour the
chocolate mixture into a beautiful bowl and arrange the carrots and
apple sticks in the chocolate, enrobing some of them with the chocolate.
Eat and enjoy. |
