• Total Time: 25 mins
• Prep Time: 20 mins
• Cook Time: 5 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 6

• 6 ounces fresh raspberries
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 lb white chocolate , chopped

Directions:

1. Set aside 1/3 of the raspberries for dipping into the finished fondue. In a blender puree the remaining raspberries. Strain the puree through a fine meshed wire sieve into a small bowl. Discard the seeds. Set the puree aside.
2. In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, bring the cream to a simmer over medium heat and add the white chocolate. Let stand until the chocolate softens, about 3 minutes. Whisk until smooth.
3. Transfer the fondue to a ceramic fondue pot and keep warm over a burner. Drizzle the raspberry puree over the fondue. Swirl a knife through the puree to create a marble effect.
