Tips

  • Dutch-process cocoa gives the darkest color and the smoothest flavor.
  • Whisk ½ tsp instant espresso in with the cocoa. It deepens the chocolate without tasting of coffee.
  • Chocolate bases often come out crumbly on the first spin. A Re-spin makes them creamy.

Why it works

Cocoa and melted chocolate both add solids that thicken the base, and cocoa butter gives a fudgy bite. A little extra sugar balances how firm cocoa makes a frozen tubpint.
