Mexican-Style Chocolate Fondue
From Food Network Kitchens

Ingredients
1 cup heavy cream (see Cook's note)
4 cinnamon sticks
8 ounces finely chopped semisweet chocolate

Dippers:
Cubed pound cake
Mini-bananas
Fresh or dried orange slices
Fresh or dried pears
Almond cookies
Coconut strips

Strawberries

Instructions
In small saucepan over medium heat, bring the cream
and cinnamon sticks just to boil. Remove from the heat and set aside to steep for
15 minutes. Remove the cinnamon and discard.

Put the chocolate in a medium bowl. Bring the cream to a simmer, pour it over the
chocolate, and let stand for 5 minutes. Stir the chocolate mixture until
completely melted and smooth. Transfer the chocolate mixture to a fondue pot, and
keep warm over a low sterno flame or in a large ramekin wrapped with a cloth
napkin to keep it warm. Serve with a selection of the dippers.

Cook's note: This makes a thick fondue, for a thinner sauce, simply add more
