I really love this recipe, it's very easy, it's vegan, and delicious. The first time I followed the recipe, but it was a bit too sweet, so now I put a bit less sugar, and add the zest of one orange. It makes all the difference, it's really good!

YUM!!!! My husband and I are ice cream addicts and after making this I don't think we'll be buying Ben & Jerry's chocolate ice cream anymore! Its so easy to make and just as good. I used half water and half cream to get that gelato texture and instead of sugar, I used 3/4 cup of organic honey (much better for you! I didn't bother with the coffee liqueur and used decaf espresso since we didn't want the caffeine. This is perfect homemade sorbet - will be making this over and over!!!

Fabulous, and so easy! I initially made this as Ina did, but like some others found the cinnamon overwhelming. I have now made it many times, reducing the sugar to 3/4 cup and omitting the cinnamon and the liqueur. It is still richly flavored and delicious.
NOTE: I have now been making this for several months. My husband has a small portion each evening...it's an addiction! I am adding a note to say, if you can afford to spring for the Pernigotti, do it. I just upgraded from Hershey's to Pernigotti and the difference is just amazing. You can order this from Amazon and it isn't cheap but it's worth it.

I made this sorbet the first time and followed the recipe as written and it was delicious. The second time I made it I left out the cinnamon and put two sprigs of fresh mint that I had growing on my deck in it and "steeped" it while the sugar melted. The result was a chocolate mint sorbet that was fantastic. I have now made this recipe three times in a week. So good and refreshing! Ina always has simple but very tasty recipes.

Made this exactly as recipe stated....I make sorbets and ice cream all of the time - so only keep the very best. When you don't have half & half or cream.....you have everything else to make this - rich and delicious sorbet. As for the cinnamon I did not think it was too much. Easy enough - put the cinnamon in, taste - and adjust to your liking. Try this you will not be disappointed - if you LOVE chocolate. Ina is one of my favorites.......99.9% of the time her recipes rock!

Makes a small recipe but is so big in chocolate flavor. Made it with Splenda instead of sugar for a diabetic friend who went crazy over it.

I used Hershey's cocoa and kahlua, because that's what I had on hand, and it was still amazingly chocolate-y and delicious. I HIGHLY recommend this recipe! Great job Ina!

This is a wonderful way to have the intense flavor of chocolate without the guilt. It's a real winner.
