Ingredients (serves 4-6):
- 1 pound brie cheese, rind removed and cut into small pieces
- 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
- 1/4 cup white wine
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Baguette or crackers, for serving
Cooking Tips:
- Use a heavy-bottomed pot or fondue pot to prevent the cheese from burning.
- Cut the brie into small pieces to help it melt more quickly and evenly.
- If the fondue is too thick, add a splash of white wine or chicken broth to thin it out.
Instructions:
1. In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries and white wine. Cook over medium heat until the cranberries burst and release their juices, about 5-7 minutes.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water until smooth. Add the cornstarch mixture to the cranberries and stir to combine.
3. Add the brie cheese to the saucepan and stir until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
4. Transfer the fondue to a fondue pot or serving dish and keep warm over low heat. Serve with baguette or crackers for dipping.
