Cheese fondue recipe?

[aggieamy]

I'm having a party this weekend where everyone is bringing a dessert or an appetizer. I was planning on making chocolate fondue, a cold fruit dip, and cheese fondue. I have a recipe for fondue that I got from a friend but it uses about $20+ worth of cheese. Yeah. That's not in the budget for me. Anyone have a cheese fondue recipe they could share? Or in the very least a cheese dip recipe that they love? I'm also open to any other savory fondue recipes you have. I have a crockpot to keep it warm in. Thanks so much.

This is the cheese fondue recipe we've used for years. We usually use half of the super cheap Swiss cheese from the grocery store and then spend a little more for the other half of the cheese.

 

Sounds like a fun party!!
