Savor all the decadence without a lick of guilt! We kept all the velvety, melt-in-your-mouth texture of fudgy fondue in this lusciously lighter version. It's just the thing to kindle romantic after-dinner conversation or welcome friends in from the cold. Dark Chocolate Fondue also makes a delectable way to dress up chunks of pineapple, slices of banana or scoops of fat-free frozen yogurt. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen

This was a big hit with my daughters' Girl Scout troop (ages 5-11). The girls practically hovered around it! Our troop had a Valentine's Party at a local nursing home and it was also a hit with the residents. This recipe was nice because it is diabetic friendly (a concern at a nursing home). I added one teaspoon a vanilla to this recipe to brighten the flavor. This fondue was not overly sweet like some other fondues, which was nice. I recommend this recipe!
