Keeping my cool

I always love frozen treats--ice cream, gelato, sorbet--but when warm weather hits, I really crave them. So when I saw this recipe, I just had to haul out the ice cream maker and give it a try.

Double trouble


This recipe is truly a winner if you're a chocoholic like me. The chocolate flavor is very intense, so be sure to use chocolate and cocoa you love. And since it's a sorbet, you can serve it to your friends or family members who don't eat dairy. I haven't run the numbers on fat and calories, but I'm thinking this is a more figure-friendly treat than ice cream.

My only advice is to make this in advance, transfer the sorbet to a shallow container, and freeze overnight if you want to be able to scoop it. Otherwise, just ladle it into your bowl and dig in! You won't be sorry.
