DARK CHOCOLATE MINT SORBET
When I dream about the decade-plus I spent living in Paris, there's often a dessert involved. Specifically, it's the luxurious chocolate mint sorbet that I used to order every time I splurged on one of my favorite restaurants, the Michelin-starred Au Trou Gascon. It has the thrill and depth of any dark chocolate dessert, but with a light, refreshing quality. This is my version, and it couldn't be simpler.

Place a 1-quart container (or slightly larger) in the freezer.

IRISH COFFEE AND CHOCOLATE SORBET
This recipe came to The Times in 1996 as part of a St. Patrick's Day menu from James O'Shea, a restaurateur in Connecticut. It's 20 minutes of prep time for an Irish-tinged treat any day of the year. To serve it after dinner, you'll want to make sure the sorbet is in the freezer in the morning. Serve it in a tulip glass with plenty of whipped cream, and Mr. O'Shea likes Jameson's for the whisky. Sláinte!

- To make dairy-free chocolate sorbet, use coconut milk or almond milk instead of regular milk.
- For a vegan chocolate sorbet, use agave nectar or maple syrup instead of honey.
- Add a teaspoon of instant coffee powder or espresso powder to the mixture for a richer, more complex flavor.
- Stir in some chopped nuts, dried fruit, or chocolate chips for a more decadent dessert.
