Chocolate Sorbet
If you crave chocolate, you will surely like this easy-to-make sorbet. Intense in chocolate flavor, it is low in both total fat and saturated fat and has no cholesterol. Using top-quality cocoa powder and bittersweet chocolate ensures the most satisfying result. Because the sorbet base is rich and thick, it is essential to chill it well, preferably overnight. If desired, garnish it with fresh raspberries.
