Directions

1. In a small saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon coconut cream from the coconut milk. Remove from heat and set aside.

2. In a heatproof bowl set over several inches of simmering water, combine 2/3 remaining coconut milk, vanilla, and chocolate chips. Being careful not to let the bowl touch the water, stir until chocolate melts and sauce is smooth and creamy. Add more coconut milk if you prefer a thinner fondue.
