Description

Easy chocolate caramel fondue recipe for busy women. Quick, creamy, and irresistible—your go-to dessert for any night of the week.


Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ½ cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of sea salt (optional, but highly recommended)

For dipping:

  • Strawberries, banana slices, apple chunks
  • Pretzels, graham crackers, marshmallows
  • Pound cake cubes (yes, it’s allowed—and encouraged)

Instructions

  1. Heat it slow
    In a medium saucepan over low heat, pour in the sweetened condensed milk. Stir gently—this is where the magic starts.
  2. Add the chocolate
    Add the chocolate chips and butter. Stir constantly until the chocolate melts and everything looks smooth and glossy, like dessert magazine-level glossy.
  3. Swirl in caramel
    Once it’s smooth, drizzle in that caramel sauce. Swirl it gently into the chocolate. You can fully blend it or leave pretty ribbons of caramel goodness (your call).
  4. Vanilla & salt
    Stir in the vanilla and a pinch of sea salt. Don’t skip this step—it brings out all the flavors in that dreamy way only vanilla and salt can.
  5. Serve warm
    Pour into a fondue pot or heatproof bowl. Serve right away with all your favorite dippers.
