So what should we chop up for the party? I say we do some fondue, don’t you? Fondue is a great party dish because it caters to multiple tastes (the various kinds of dippers) and almost everyone loves CHEESE! It involves a lot of dippers that need to be chopped up and typically take a lot of time. But with Cutco Knives – it’s super easy! I have used this recipes for many parties in the past and I always get complements. The recipe is practically foolproof! ENJOY!
