Chocolate Caramel Raspberry Fondue (For Mini Crock Pot)

• 1 (12 ounce) package semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 (14 ounce) package caramels, unwrapped
• 1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
• 1/2 cup sweet unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup raspberry preserves or 1/2 cup jam
• sponge cakes or poundcake, for dipping
• chunks fresh fruit, for dipping

1. In a 2-quart saucepan, combine chocolate chips, caramels, milk, butter, raspberry jam.
2. Cook over low heat, stirring often, until melted and smooth- this may take a while, about 20-30 minutes (do not be tempted to rush things by raising the heat or your fondue will burn).
3. When everything has melted together, pour into a either a fondue pot or a crockpot set on low heat.
4. Serve along with a platter of bite-sized pieces of sponge cake, pound cake, and fresh fruit and some fondue forks or skewers to dip into the fondue.
