Cheese Fondue

We had fondue on New Years Eve. It was fantastic. To be perfectly honest, I'm not big on cheese fondue, but this is what we made and I loved it. Better yet, it's cheap, as far as cheese fondue goes. The original recipe can be found here. What you're finding here includes my changes.


INGREDIENTS

* 3/4 cup white wine (Riesling works well!)
* 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
* 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
* 1 tablespoon cornstarch
* 1/8 teaspoon pepper

DIRECTIONS

In a large saucepan, bring cider to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Toss the cheeses with cornstarch and pepper; stir into cider. Cook and stir for 3-4 minutes or until cheese is melted. Transfer to a small ceramic fondue pot or slow cooker; keep warm. Serve with bread cubes, fruit & vegetables.
