Chocolate Fondue - I got this from my Mom

6 (1 oz.) squares unsweetened chocolate
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 cup light cream
1/2 cup butter or margarine (I use butter)
1/8 teaspoon salt

In saucepan, melt chocolate over low heat.  Add sugar, cream, butter &
salt.  Cook, stirring constantly, about 5 minutes or until thickened.
Pour into fondue pot; place over burner.

Makes 6-8 servings

Comments:  
1) this really makes more than 8 servings unless you like a whole lot
2) you could melt the chocolate in the microwave, but I don't know how it
   would turn out if you tried to do the rest there as it takes a lot of 
   stirring to get everything mixed together, and by then it's usually starting
   to thicken.
3) I've served this with fruit, and also with cake cut into small squares
