Make an extra creamy Cheese Fondue at home with this easy three cheese recipe! It's made without wine, and instead uses half and half, which makes it so creamy. This is a fun spin on classic Swiss cheese fondue, and it's delicious served with bread, veggies or roasted baby potatoes for dipping. Fondue is the perfect party food, and also great for a romantic date night!
Grate the emmanteler and swiss cheese into a large bowl, and set aside.
Add the olive oil to a fondue pot, or medium saucepan on the stove, over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the finely chopped shallots and cook for 3-4 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium low, then add the cream cheese and half and half, and stir until it’s smooth.
Reduce the heat to low, then add ⅓ of the shredded cheese and stir until it’s smooth and melted. Repeat with another ⅓ of the cheese, stirring again until melted, then with the remaining ⅓ of cheese, until all of the cheese is melted.
Season with the salt, pepper and nutmeg.
Serve with any of the optional sides for dipping.
