Recipe

1/3 cup whipping cream
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
10 to 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tsp Watkins Original Double Strength Vanilla
1 tsp Watkins Orange Extract (on sale this month)

Dippers
~ Fresh fruits - bananas, strawberries, grapes, tangerines, kiwi, pears, apples, raspberries. Fresh fruit should be ripe but still firm enough to not dissolve while dipping
