Low in fat but high in cocoa powder, this bittersweet chocolate sorbet is for true chocolate lovers only. Spread it between two low-fat grahams to make it into an ice cream sandwich.

2 cups water
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup chopped almonds

Directions

In a large saucepan, combine all ingredients except almonds. Bring to a boil then simmer 2 to 3 minutes stirring occasionally until the mixture is smooth and thick. Cool to room temperature.

Refrigerate 4 hours or more, stores for up to 3 weeks in an airtight container in the freezer. Sprinkle with almonds before serving.

    Correct, I don’t use artificial sweeteners. Essentially sugar is sugar, meaning brown sugar, white sugar, and honey all work in the body the same way, so there indulge in moderation.

    Thank you! I’ve been searching for chocolate with coriander since my husband brought me a Jeff de Bruges confection from Paris 5 years ago. It seems like many people here in the States can’t even imagine the pairing. I hope your sorbet will be the answer to my quest!
