Gather all ingredients and tools: microwave-safe bowl and your preferred dippers (fruits, pretzels, marshmallows).

Heat heavy cream in the microwave or saucepan until hot but not boiling (about 1 minute).

Add dark chocolate chips to the cream; let sit for 2 minutes before stirring until smooth.

Stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.

Transfer the fondue to a serving bowl and arrange dippers around it.

Enjoy by dipping your favorite treats into the warm chocolate!
