Dark Chocolate & Coconut “Black Hole” Fondue (Inspired by The Theory of Everything)

Amber Kelley, age 12, competed on Season 2 of Rachael & Guy: Kids Cook-Off.  She also has her own online healthy cooking show, which has over 10,000 subscribers and over half a million views. Amber is part of celebrity chef Jamie Oliver‘s Food Tube talent as well the winner of the Healthy Lunchtime Challenge, for which she was invited to the Kids’ State Dinner at the White House and was given the honor of sitting next to the First Lady Michelle Obama. The First Lady even praised Amber’s efforts in her speech.

Ingredients

 Dark Chocolate Coconut Fondue

• 7 oz can full fat coconut milk (not coconut drink)
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 cups (or 12 oz) 60% cacao or greater dark chocolate chips

White Chocolate Swirl

• 2 oz white chocolate chips
• 1/3 cup heavy cream

Fruit for Dipping

• Grapes
• Strawberries
• Blueberries
• Bananas, sliced into circles
• Blackberries
• Kiwi, peeled and sliced into circles
• Starfruit, sliced into stars

Preparation

1. To make the White Chocolate Swirl, gently heat the heavy cream over a double boiler over medium heat. 
2. When warm to the touch, add the white chocolate chips and whisk until smooth. Turn off heat and set it aside while you prepare the Dark Chocolate Coconut Fondue.
3. Create a double boiler in a separate saucepan, and gently heat the coconut milk in a double boiler over medium heat. 
4. Add the dark chocolate chips and whisk until smooth and melted. Whisk in the vanilla.
5. Pour the dark chocolate fondue into a fondue pot and light the fuel underneath. Keep the flame low, so the fondue does not burn. 
6. Carefully drizzle the white chocolate fondue in a circle pattern on the dark chocolate fondue. We used a liquid measuring cup with a spout to do this. 
7. Using one of the bamboo skewers, gently swirl the white chocolate fondue to create the black hole effect.
8. Skewer fruit onto long bamboo skewers, and arrange them in glasses around the fondue pot. The fruit are the planets and asteroids getting sucked into the black hole!

Serve immediately and enjoy!
