Best 6 Chocolate Espresso Sorbet Recipes

CHOCOLATE ESPRESSO CUBE

Steps:

• With a small paintbrush, paint a few strokes of the white chocolate on the inside of the box. Allow the white chocolate to dry. With a slightly larger paintbrush, paint the inside of the box with the extra-bitter chocolate. Shake out the excess, and allow the boxes to dry. Once the chocolate has solidified, place boxes in refrigerator and keep cool.
• In a medium sized bowl, place the milk, milk chocolate, extra bitter chocolate, butter, orange zest, and espresso extract. Set bowl over a double boiler and melt the ingredients.
• In a mixer, combine the egg yolks, 1/4 cup of sugar, and whip for 4 to 5 minutes, until pale and fluffy. Remove from the machine and fold into melted chocolate mixture. In a separate bowl, combine the creme fraiche, heavy cream, and the 3 ounces of sugar, and whisk until soft peaks.
• Pour the contents of the chocolate mixture into the whipped cream and whisk together until incorporated. Carefully fold in the diced chocolate cake. Place the mousse into a pastry bag and pipe mousse into the chocolate cubes filling the molds completely. Smooth the tops, and place molds into refrigerator overnight.
• Combine the water, espresso beans, and sugar in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Once mixture has come to a boil, pour over the chopped chocolate, and whisk until smooth. Pass through a chinois and strain. Place in an ice bath to cool. Run through an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• To serve dish, slightly warm cubes with hands and turn over on a plate. With an ice cream scoop, place two scoops on plate next to the cube.

CHOCOLATE ESPRESSO TORTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Butter an 8-inch cake pan (I used a springform pan) and line bottom with parchment paper. Butter the parchment and lightly flour (or use cocoa) the pan, shaking out excess.
• In a small, heavy-based saucepan, melt chocolate and butter over medium heat, stirring frequently. Set aside.
• Using the whisk attachment of a stand mixer, whip the eggs, sugar, brewed espresso, ground espresso beans, and salt on medium-high speed until thick and voluminous, at least 8 minutes (I mixed about 10 minutes). Turn the mixer to low and mix in the chocolate-butter mixture. Turn off mixer and sift the flour over the batter and fold until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
• Pour batter into prepared pan and bake until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean, 25-30 minutes.
• Cool in the pan on a rack for 10 minutes. Set a plate over the torte and carefully invert the torte onto the plate; peel off the parchment. Flip the torte back onto the rack to cool completely before slicing. (Since I used a springform pan, I let it cool completely in the pan.).

CHOCOLATE SORBET

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, whisk together 1 1/2 cups (375 ml) of the water with the sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Bring to a boil, whisking frequently. Let it boil, continuing to whisk, for 45 seconds.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the chocolate until it's melted, then stir in the vanilla extract and the remaining 3/4 cup (180 ml) water. Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend for 15 seconds. Chill the mixture thoroughly, then freeze it in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. If the mixture has become too thick to pour into your machine, whisk it vigorously to thin it out.
