Ingredients

• 500 ml Water
• 150 g Granulated sugar
• 50 g Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 140 g Dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher), finely chopped
• 0.25 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the water, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Whisk well to dissolve the cocoa and sugar into the water.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Continue simmering for 3-4 minutes to ensure the cocoa powder is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.

Step 3

Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the chopped dark chocolate. Let it sit for 1-2 minutes to allow the chocolate to begin melting.

Step 4

Gently whisk the mixture until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is glossy and smooth.

Step 5

Stir in the vanilla extract and let the mixture cool to room temperature. Once cooled, transfer the mixture to a container, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until completely chilled.

Step 6

Once the mixture is thoroughly chilled, pour it into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This typically takes 20-25 minutes, or until the sorbet has a thick and creamy consistency.

Step 7

Transfer the churned sorbet to a freezer-safe container, smooth out the top, and place it in the freezer for at least 2 hours to firm up before serving.

Step 8

Serve in bowls or cones and enjoy the rich, dark chocolate flavor of this indulgent sorbet.
