Fiona Poole Dark Chocolate Sorbet
I made this one a while ago, back in October I think. It is a beautifully rich sorbet with a hint of cinnamon. I can’t remember where I found the recipe, perhaps from Not Quite Nigella, a blog that I have been following for a while.
Anyway, this Dark Chocolate Sorbet would be perfect as an accompaniment to any dessert or just on its own. I served it with some tinned cherries but now that fresh cherries are in season it would make the perfect Christmas time dessert.

Remove from heat and whisk in chocolate, vanilla, and cinnamon.

Place mixture into ice cream machine and churn for approx 20mins. Once churned pop in freezer to firm up for several hours or overnight.
