   Ingredients
   •    600ml water
   •    200g caster sugar
   •    50g cocoa powder
   •    50g good quality dark chocolate 70% cocoa solids , 
                    broken into small pieces.
   •    1 tsp vanilla extract
   
   •    Sift the cocoa powder into a bowl and add the caster
                    sugar and mix.
   •     Bring  the water to the boil in a medium saucepan.
                    Whisk in the sugar and cocoa and return to a gentle
                    simmer.
   •     Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes, whisking
                    occasionally. Remove from the heat and add the
                    chocolate and vanilla  stirring until the chocolate has
                    melted.
   •     Cool the mixture, then put in the fridge for several
                    hours
                    or overnight until well chilled.
   •     Make the sorbet in an ice-cream machine or pour
                    into a rigid plastic container, preferably bowl shaped,
                    and  freeze until frozen 3cm from the edges.
   •    Whisk to break down the ice crystals, freeze again for
                   1 hour.
   •     Whisk and freeze again one more time, then leave
                    until completely frozen.
   •    Before serving, transfer to the fridge for at least 20
                   minutes to make serving easier.
