Irish Coffee and Chocolate Sorbet image

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!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sorbet turned out icy and not smooth. I think I might have over-churned it.

This sorbet was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. Other than that, it was very good.
