Dark Chocolate Sorbet
Let’s get started with this decadent delight that will have your taste buds doing a happy dance. If you’re a chocolate lover, this is about to become your new best friend!
Ingredients
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup dark chocolate, chopped
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the water and sugar over medium heat. Stir until the sugar has completely dissolved; it should feel like a smooth chocolatey sea!
- Once the sugar is dissolved, reduce the heat to low and whisk in the cocoa powder until it’s well blended. Almost like magic, right?
- Add the chopped dark chocolate to the mixture. Stir and watch as the chocolate melts into a silky-smooth concoction. Let it simmer gently for about 5 minutes.
- Next, add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Stir a bit more. If you were waiting for a sign that dessert is coming, this is it!
- Remove the mixture from the heat and let it cool. Patience is a virtue, my friend! Once it’s cooled down, pop it into the fridge for about 2 hours until it’s nice and cold.
- Now, it’s churn time! Pour your cooled chocolate bliss into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour it into a shallow container and freeze it. Just remember to stir it every 30 minutes for 2-3 hours to break up ice crystals. We want smooth, not crunchy, people!
- Once it reaches a soft-serve consistency, transfer your dark chocolate sorbet to an airtight container and freeze for at least another 2 hours for that perfect scoop!
And there you have it! Serve your dark chocolate sorbet in bowls, top with some raspberries or a drizzle of chocolate sauce, and let the taste-testing commence! Your friends will be begging you for the recipe (but shhhh… keep it a secret!). Enjoy!
