This Vegan Chocolate Cherry Sorbet recipe is one for the adults! The words sorbet and decadent don’t often go together as we are used to lighter fruity sorbets. But this dark chocolate and tart cherry combination tastes wonderful! Make it for your summer dinner parties and wow your guests! Just remember to factor in the chilling time.
I make this sorbet in two parts. First I prepare the sorbet by bringing cherry jam, cocoa, sugar and salt to a boil with some water which I allow to cool and chill overnight – this is very important to allow the flavors to combine. The next day, I use my ice cream maker to freeze the sorbet. I serve this amazing dish with a homemade cherry compote.
To make Chocolate Cherry Sorbet, you will need the following ingredients:
Add the red cherry jam, cocoa, sugar and salt to a large heavy saucepan over low heat. Stir well with a whisk to combine.
Pour in the water slowly, stirring constantly with a whisk. Bring to a boil while stirring.
Once the mixture has come to a boil, remove it from the heat and allow to cool completely. Cover and refrigerate over 4 hours.
Stir the sorbet mixture before pouring it into an ice-cream maker. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to freeze. Once frozen, transfer to a container and freeze for 1 hour or until firm.
Mix the sugar and cherries together in a bowl. Leave to stand for about an hour at room temperature.
Serve the sorbet with compote spooned on top.
