                                                1 tablespoon unsalted butter  |  
                                                1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme leaves  |  
                                                1 teaspoon minced garlic  |  
                                                2 cups heavy cream  |  
                                                1/2 pound cambozola blue cheese, crumbled, or other blue cheese  |  
                                                1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper  |  
                                                *fondue pot  |  
                                                serve with cubed french bread, vegetables, walnuts, apple wedges, figs, apricots etc.  |  
                                                
                     
                    Directions: 
                    
                        
                            
                                1. In a small pan over medium-low heat, cook the butter, thyme, and garlic until the garlic is soft, about 2 minutes. 2. Be careful not to let the garlic brown. 3. Add the cream, raise the heat to medium, and bring the cream to a simmer. 4. Cook until the cream is reduced by 1/3. 5. Lower the heat to maintain a slow simmer. 6. Add the cheese and stir until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth. 7. Add the pepper and pour into a fondue pot set over low heat. 8. Note: You can make this sauce a couple of hours in advance but reheat it very slowly to prevent separation.                              |
