WHISKEY-CHEESE FONDUE

Can anyone say WHISKEY IT UP A NOTCH! This recipe made famous by a Brooklyn chef adds the great kick of whiskey. I love fondue and this is fabulous. Fondues make such great entertainment conversation and should definitely be enjoyed at home!

Ingredients:

1 lb extra sharp cheddar cheese- shredded
1/2 lb Monterey Jack cheese - shredded
2 tbl cornstarch
2 cloves garlic halved
1 cup dry white wine (YES!)
3 tbl whiskey
salt
pepper
Assorted crusty bread, apples and whatever floats your fondue cut in cubes

In a bowl combine cheese and cornstarch. Rub the garlic on the inside of a medium sauce pan and discard. Add the wine to the sauce pan and bring to a simmer. Add the cheese mixture in several batches whisking constantly over medium heat. Let each batch of cheese melt before adding the next. Pour in the whiskey and stir just until it begins to bubble about 2-3 minutes. Season to taste. Serve with the breads, fruits and vegetables of your choice.

You can always follow this with a chocolate fondue...!!!!!
ENJOY!
