Dark Chocolate Sorbet


Dark Chocolate Sorbet

Ingredients: (Makes ~5 cups)
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 & 2/3 cups brown sugar
  • 1 & 2/3 cups cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

                                      Directions:
  1. Mix water, sugar, and salt in a saucepan on medium heat until sugar and salt are fully dissolved.
  2. Add cocoa powder and vanilla extract.
  3. Once done, remove from heat and pour in a bowl and store in the refrigerator overnight.
  4. In the morning, take out your ice cream maker’s freezer bowl from the freezer and pour in your mixture.
  5. Churn for 15 minutes, or until solid.
  6. Place in a cup and decorate with sprinkles and chocolate!

Enjoy!

                                             Tips:

  • I left my sorbet mixture in the refrigerator overnight, but you can leave it in at the minimum of 2 hours if you are pressed for time.
  • Make sure to leave the freezer bowl in the freezer overnight!
  • Because no gums or preservatives are used, the sorbet melts very fast. For a firmer consistency, store in the freezer after it is done.
  • This came out very sweet. For less sweetness, reduce the amount of sugar.
  • If you don’t like the taste of molasses in brown sugar, which can be tasted quite heavily here, switch to white sugar instead.
