Bailey's chocolate fondue

So obviously the whole keeping a blog and going to graduate school thing didn't work out...  But I am determined to keep this going if for nothing but my own records of things to eat!  At the end of the semester I ended up cooking A TON, but all other people's recipes.  I've become obsessed with soups, especially in the slow cooker. 

Lately I've been reading Get it Ripe by Jae Steele (and about 5 other books).  She takes a fairly non judgemental (for a vegan nutritionist) stance on health, which I love.  I've been drinking lemon water twice a day, and I feel soooo energetic.  I think my liver may love me for the first time in my life.

So in my quest to be healthy, I ate tons of vegetables yesterday, and then topped it off with a Bailey's Irish Cream fondue.  With butter cookies from Trader Joe's, Pringles, and a banana and apple.  Hey, Jae says you have to change in small steps!!

Bailey's Chocolate Fondue

12 oz. bag of chocolate chips (I used semi-sweet)
1/4 cup of Bailey's
3/4 cup of milk
1 tsp* of vanilla

*my 1 tsp turned into "Omg the bottle has a huge opening and it all poured out!"  It was still delicious.

Pour the Bailey's and milk and vanilla into a fondue pot (I got an electric one for Christmas...I love it!).  When it starts to barely simmer, pour in the chocolate.  Stir in a figure 8 style until it is all nicely blended and melted (about 3 minutes).  Now eat that stuff up, we don't waste Bailey's around here!!!!

We had leftovers so I saved it for someone to pour on ice cream or eat with a spoon!



No picture this time, but I did get my fiance an actual camera (instead of my phone), so I may actually be able to have a semi-okay looking picture of food soon!
