Few foods are more fun to eat than a good old-fashioned cheese fondue. Not only is it a fun throwback to the fondue craze of the 70’s but it is up there in some of the best foods for a small party. What makes this fondue better than the rest? The slightest hint of garlic flavor, achieved by rubbing the inside of your pot with a cut garlic clove. GENIUS.  If you’re looking for the other kind of fondue (or want to have a full fondue meal!) check out our ultra-decadent recipe for chocolate fondue, it does not disappoint. 😋 Made it? Let us know how it went in the comment section below!
