Posted Feb 07, 2018, Updated Jun 23, 2024 When it comes to celebrating any special occasion or life event, it’s a well-known fact that the combination of chocolate & peanut butter is my love language. You can keep your fancy gifts, give me a sweet treat where these two ingredients are the stars and I will gladly be your Valentine. xoxo So I created this chocolate peanut butter fondue recipe, which is incredible on so many levels I am not even sure where to begin. This velvety smooth pool of rich, creamy chocolate has subtle but satisfying notes of peanut butter in every insanely delicious bite. It is so good that you will want to savor it down to the very last drop. Everyone in my family absolutely loves grabbing a fondue fork and diving right in.
Chocolate Peanut Butter Fondue: Ingredients & Substitutions
Coconut cream. for a non-dairy-free variety, use heavy whipping cream, half and half or whole milk in place of coconut cream. Full-fat coconut milk also works well. Chocolate chips. Any chocolate bar or chip will work well in this recipe! I recommend a variety that’s between 60-72% dark for the ultimate chocolate flavor. However, feel free to choose your favorite variety! Both Enjoy Life Foods and Sunspire Chocolate make chips that are certified dairy-free! Granulated sugar. I recommend organic cane sugar here, but any granulated variety should work well. Use coconut sugar for a refined sugar free option! I do not recommend using calorie-free sweeteners, as I do not use them and cannot guarantee results!
