I finally tried (and succeeded) in making goat cheese fondue, or dip, and it was just as heavenly as one I had in a favorite restaurant. I was brave and asked the waiter how they make it, and they said it was just two ingredients.
So I came home and mixed the dairy products in a small pan, heated it gently and it was ready to go; much too simple, I’m afraid.

It’s hard to believe there are only two ingredients in this incredible appetizer. It’s so delicious and filling, you can just add a charcuterie platter and a glass of wine and call it a light dinner!
What kind of Cheese do I use?
For this recipe, the soft, log cheese which usually says “chevre” (goat in French) is the the one to use. Use a good quality cheese for the best flavor.
