1/2 c. butter
1/3 c. half and half
5 (1 oz.) squares unsweetened chocolate
1 c. sugar
1/8 tsp. salt
Fresh, canned or dried fruits
Pound cake, ladyfingers, pretzels, etc.

In heavy saucepan, over low heat, or double boiler, melt butter, add half and half, chocolate, sugar and salt. Stir occasionally until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. If you wish, stir in 3 tablespoons bourbon or whiskey. Pour into fondue or something to keep warm. This is great for adults and children alike. Especially when you are snowed in!
