Ingredients
- 500 ml water
- 80 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 100 grams coconut sugar
- 100 grams dark chocolate (70% cacao or more), finely chopped
- 50 grams unflavored whey protein isolate
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 pinch pinch of sea salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the water, cocoa powder, and coconut sugar. Place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk until the mixture is smooth and begins to simmer. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
Step 2
Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the chopped dark chocolate, stirring until fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Step 3
Stir in the whey protein isolate, pure vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt until everything is well combined and smooth.
Step 4
Pour the mixture into a bowl and let it cool down to room temperature. Once cooled, cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until completely chilled.
Step 5
Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, until it reaches a sorbet-like consistency.
Step 6
Transfer the sorbet into an airtight container and freeze for an additional 1-2 hours to firm up before serving.
Step 7
Serve the high protein chocolate sorbet scooped into bowls or cones, and enjoy your healthy, protein-rich treat!
