Time 50m

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 package (14 oz) precooked cocktail links, drained and patted dry
2 cans (8 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Original Crescent Rolls (8 Count)
1 lb sharp Cheddar cheese, grated (6 cups)
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon finely minced garlic
1/2 cup stout or beer
6 tablespoons frozen (thawed) apple juice concentrate
1 teaspoon ground mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375°F. Unroll each can crescent dough into long rectangle. Firmly press perforations to seal. Using a small knife, cut dough into 1-inch by 4-inch strips. (Cut number of strips to match number of cocktails links in package--about 48.)
  • Wrap each cocktail link with 1 dough strip around middle of link. Place on ungreased cookie sheet, seam side down, about 2 inches apart. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.
  • In large bowl, toss grated cheese with the flour. In 2-quart saucepan over medium heat, swirl in the olive oil. When shimmering, add the garlic; cook 30 seconds until very fragrant. Add stout, apple juice concentrate, ground mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Heat to a simmer (let simmer 3 minutes if you want alcohol to evaporate) and gradually, in small batches, add cheese, constantly stirring until fondue is smooth, thick and cheese completely melted. If too thick, stir in an additional oz of stout until desired consistency.
  • Serve fondue immediately with pigs in the blanket.

This fondue was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have used less salt next time.

I'm not a big fan of cheddar cheese, but I really enjoyed this fondue. The stout added a nice depth of flavor.

This fondue was a bit too thick for my taste. I would have preferred a thinner, more pourable consistency.

This fondue was a bit bland. I think it needed more seasoning.

I found that the fondue was a bit too thick. I had to add some milk to thin it out.

This fondue was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I would have preferred a more balanced ratio of cheese to beer.

This fondue was a hit at my last dinner party! It was creamy, flavorful, and oh-so-indulgent. I loved the combination of cheddar and stout, and the bread cubes were the perfect vehicle for dipping.
