This four-ingredient sorbet is rich in chocolate flavor, light in texture and so smooth it’s hard to imagine that it’s both dairy-free and made without an ice cream machine. The secret is beating the sorbet with an electric mixer at different stages during freezing, a process that slowly incorporates air to mimic the texture of churned sorbet. We used a combination of dark chocolate and cocoa powder and tested with varying amounts to arrive at the ideal balance of chocolatey taste and excellent mouthfeel, then gave everything a boost with a bit of sea salt. Check that your sugar and chocolate are vegan and your treat will be vegan as well dairy-free.
