"Be anxious for nothing,

but in everything,

by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving,

let your requests be made known unto God.

And the peace of God,

which passeth all understanding,

shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."

Philippians 4:6 & 7

 

 

 

 

 

Last spring we had the opportunity to participate in a benefit auction for our children's school.  T and I and some dear friends offered to host a Fall Fondue Party for 10, which took place this past Saturday night.  This Salted Caramel Fondue was one of our desserts and was also the favor our guests took home.  For dessert dippers we used Pears, Apples, Pound Cake, Pretzels, Strawberries, Rice Krispies, Brownies, Bananas, Marshmallows, and canned Biscuits (to fry in hot oil) with Vanilla Sugar & Apple Pie Spice blend.  This fondue also makes a wonderful ice cream sauce and a delightful addition to a cup of hot coffee.  If you're going to make this for a favor, I recommend sprinkling the Kosher Salt on top of the fondue once it has set up in the jars instead of stirring it into the hot Fondue as the recipe states--it looks prettier that way!

 

Our menu for the evening included Tempura Shrimp Fondue, Marinated Filet Migon and Marinated Chicken Breast Fondue, Simmering Beef Broth Fondue, Baked Fontina Fondue with Sun-Dried Tomatoes, Spinach and Artichoke Fondue, Classic Cheese Fondue, Crab Fondue, Chocolate Marshmallow Fondue, and Mini Doughnuts.
