Slow Cooker Rocky Road Chocolate Fondue

 

We use our slow cookers for a lot of dinners . . . but did you ever think to use it for dessert?!

Now that the weather has turned cold, we have a lot of family movie nights and no movie night is complete without a delicious treat! My kids loved finding new things to dip into this  warm chocolate and it was so fun to munch on while we watched our show.

This would also be the perfect dessert for a romantic date night . . . 

Check out a cute idea here!

Slow Cooker Rocky Road Fondue
Ingredients:
1 1/2 tablespoons butter
2 (4.25 oz) large Hershey's Chocolate with Almonds candy bars
1 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
3 tablespoons milk
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

Directions:
Place butter, chocolate, marshmallows, and milk in a 1-2 quart slow cooker that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Cover and cook on low heat for 1 1/2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes until melted and smooth. Gradually stir in whipping cream. Cover and keep warm for serving up to 2 hours. Makes 6-8 servings.
Serve with bite-size brownie pieces, bananas, apples, marshmallows, graham crackers, strawberries, cinnamon bears, cookies, mandarin oranges, or anything else you like. I like to use wooden skewers or large toothpicks to pick up the bite-sized food and dip it into the chocolate.
