Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Melt the Chocolate

    Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler method) and let the chocolate melt slowly, stirring occasionally until smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Syrup

    In a medium saucepan, combine the water, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar and cocoa powder are fully dissolved. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then remove from heat and let it cool for about 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Once the syrup is cooled, add the melted dark chocolate and vanilla extract to the syrup. Whisk together until fully combined and smooth.

  4. 4

    Chill the Mixture

    Transfer the chocolate mixture to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.

  5. 5

    Churn the Sorbet

    Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.

  6. 6

    Freeze the Sorbet

    Transfer the churned sorbet to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Scoop the dark chocolate sorbet into bowls or cones and enjoy! You can garnish with chocolate shavings or fresh berries if desired.
