REC: Creamy Raspberry Fondue

[Damsel in dis Dress]

On Tuesday night, we (Gargoylle, Crash, and I) had our fondue dinner. We
had steak, shrimp, and scallops cooked in oil; bread, asparagus, and
broccoli in cheese; and angel food and pound cake in raspberry sauce. The
raspberry fondue was the hit of the evening, and with good reason. It's
spectacular!

Ooh, this one looks like a keeper. I'm dreaming of a plate
of cubed pound cake and chocolate cake for dipping in raspberry
sauce... :)

Not being much of a sweet eater, I didn't get around to trying the
cheese cake we made until last night. I topped it with the raspberry
sauce. Both the items might give me a sweet tooth. Wonderful stuff!

We're thinking of dipping brownies into it the next time. And there WILL
be a next time!
