List of Ingredients
1-1/2 cups (about 12 ounces) mascarpone cheese
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1-1/2 tablespoons amaretto flavored liqueur or espresso coffee
1/2 teaspoon orange extract, optional
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
For grilled fruit:
9 firm ripe peaches, nectarines or pears
1/2-cup butter (1 stick), melted
Recipe
For dipping:
Grilled or broiled peaches, nectarines and pears. In a small-size saucepan, heat mascarpone cheese over low heat, stirring constantly, until melted. Stir in sugar, amaretto and orange extract and heat 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a ceramic fondue pot and keep warm over a fondue burner. Sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg. The fondue may be served in the pot or individual warmed ramekins. Serve with grilled or broiled fruit.
For Grilled Fruit
Preheat grill or broiler. Cut fruit in halves and remove pits. Brush lightly with a little melted butter. Grill fruit over medium-hot coals just until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Don't allow fruit to get too soft. The fruit may also be broiled 3 to 4 minutes, turning once. Makes 6 servings.
