Superb! Made this on New Year's Eve and it was out of this world. We didn't have brandy but a little whiskey did the trick. For dipping, we used granny smith apples, bananas, marshmallows, and pizzelle cookies.
Caramel Apple Fondue
This cider-spiced caramel fondue with apples is a perfect treat for a Halloween party. If you don't have that many guests, this recipe is easy to cut in half. You can also make the entire caramel fondue and store half in the refrigerator to use later as a topping for ice cream.
Yield: 12 servings (serving size: 6 apple wedges and 1/4 cup caramel fondue)
