How to Make Chocolate Sorbet Dark And Dense

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup water and 1 cup granulated sugar.
  2. Place the saucepan over medium heat.
  3. Stir constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
  4. Whisk in 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder. (Add 1 teaspoon espresso powder now if making chocolate espresso sorbet.)
  5. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring continuously.
  6. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 3 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent scorching.
  7. Remove from heat and pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove any lumps.
  8. Let the mixture cool completely in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. (Add 1 teaspoon peppermint extract now if making chocolate mint sorbet.)
  9. Once cooled, stir the mixture well.
  10. Churn the mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. (If making chocolate nut sorbet, add 1/2 cup chopped toasted nuts when the sorbet is almost frozen and let the machine mix them in.)
  11. Once churned, the sorbet will be soft-serve consistency. For a firmer sorbet, transfer it to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 2-3 hours.
  12. Let the sorbet sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping and serving.
