Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Melt the Chocolate

    Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl. Melt the chocolate over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method), stirring occasionally until smooth and fully melted. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Prepare Sugar Water

    In a separate saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. Once dissolved, bring the mixture to a boil for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.

Mixing

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the sugar water has cooled, add the melted chocolate, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk together until fully combined and smooth.

Chilling and Churning

  1. 4

    Chill the Mixture

    Pour the chocolate mixture into a shallow dish and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until thoroughly chilled.

  2. 5

    Churn the Sorbet

    Once the mixture is chilled, pour it into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.

  3. 6

    Freeze the Sorbet

    Transfer the churned sorbet to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours to firm up before serving.
