SUGAR FREE VEGAN CHOCOLATE SORBET

I could never live without chocolate. It would be a sad life. And I’m not into sad. What I am into is making chocolate recipes that feel indulgent, but are anything but.

Recipes that require just a little time, but provide the biggest bang for my buck.

Since it’s officially ice cream season and summer parties will be happening every weekend, homemade ice cream or low carb ice cream, will be your quickest dessert win when the family or you want something delicious and cold on a hot day!

This great dairy-free dessert recipe is one of the easiest I’ve ever made and dare I say one of the best!

When you can have a creamy, chocolate frozen treat for just 15 calories for a ½ cup and just 2 net carbs I think that’s pretty amazing!

CLASSIC CHOCOLATE SORBET

It all began when I was on my treadmill in the basement watching a recorded Ina Garten on the Food Network. Do you exercise and watch cooking shows?

It’s honestly where I get my most creative ideas, on the treadmill and watching a cooking show, go figure right?

One idea just snowballs into another and then I slow down on the treadmill so I can type it into my notes on my phone so I don’t forget!

Obviously Ina isn’t into sugar free cooking or baking, but she inspired me to create this recipe today.

I was quite unsure to use so much coffee in the recipe because I didn’t want a coffee flavor, but she was right, it just makes the dark chocolate flavor even more intense! I should know better than to question her.

Ina Garten used espresso, but I used decaf coffee so my kids could try it.

SORBET VERUS SHERBET

Sorbet doesn’t contain any dairy at all, but sherbet contains a little bit of heavy whipping cream or milk to make the texture more like regular ice cream.

You can certainly do that in this sugar free chocolate ice cream recipe by replacing the water with heavy cream if you desire, but I honestly don’t think you need to.

This is like a creamy keto ice cream recipe even though it doesn’t have any dairy!

If you want to keep this recipe dairy free and don’t want to add cream, use full-fat coconut milk or if not tree nut allergies, you could use unsweetened almond milk or cashew milk instead the water.

TOOLS TO MAKE CHOCOLATE SORBET

Blender- Quick and easy to mix all ingredients fast!

Ice Cream Machine- I use an ice cream attachment for my Kitchenaid and absolutely love it.

Whenever I want to make ice cream, I just grab the bowl which I keep in the freezer ready to go. Super simple.

But I have heard wonderful things about the Cuisinart ice cream machine so I linked it here and the Ninja Creami!

Sorbet is more of a soft serve so freezing it after it has been in your ice cream machine is the best bet.

It’s a perfect allergy friendly dessert when company comes over!

No one needs to know it’s low carb, sugar free, or low in calories because they will never even notice! All they will care about is how rich and creamy it is!

CAN I SWAP THE LOW CARB SWEETENER USED?

You can use any sugar substitute you like for this egg free, sugar free sorbet.

If you don’t have liquid chocolate stevia, use vanilla or clear.

You can also use chocolate monk fruit sweetener which is equally as delicious.

If you eliminate the stevia the sorbet will not be as sweet.

Swerve or erythritol is not one for one in sweetness to typical regular sugar and also when you use too much of it many people notice an unpleasant experience with it being cooling on the tongue.

You can really use any sweetener of choice since this recipe doesn’t contain egg whites or egg yolks so feel free to taste and adjust your keto friendly sweetener for your taste.

DO I NEED TO USE AN ICE CREAM MAKER?

Yes you do need to make the sugar-free ice cream mixture in an ice cream machine to get the creamy texture desired.

DOES THE BRAND OF COCOA POWDER MATTER?

Yes, it matters what kind of cocoa powder you use. Regular unsweetened cocoa powder can tend to be bitter.

I always get a good quality cocoa powder like this one.
