Orange-Chocolate Fondue

Entered for safe-keeping. An idea for brunch served with fresh fruit such as strawberries, pears, pineapple, cherries and bananas, along with different shaped cookies. Found in Woman's World 12/31/07. If you want to add a hazelnut flavor, use 3/4 cup Nutella spread and use only 3/4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips and omit the orange zest.
