WW POINTS VALUE: 4 pts (3 tbsp fondue with 3/4 cup cake and 2 strawberries)

Note: This recipe appears in the WW New Complete Cookbook. This is an easy and elegant dessert that features fresh fruit and fat-free angel food cake. The orginal recipe in the cookbook called for whole milk but skim milk will work just as well. You can also substitute bittersweet chocolate for the semisweet chocolate as well. I added the ground cinnamon for a pinch of Mexican flavor and it is delicious. You can serve other fruits with this fondue such as apples, bananas, pitted cherries, grapes, orange slices, etc. This fondue will also give you your chocolate fix when you need it.
