1 cup water
1 cup strong decaffeinated coffee
10 packets sugar substitute
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons Atkins Sugar Free Chocolate syrup
1. Mix water, coffee, and sugar substitute in a heavy
saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in cocoa powder
and syrup. Bring mixture to a gentle boil. Simmer,
stirring constantly, 3 minutes. Remove from heat; pour
mixture through a fine strainer into a large measuring
cup. Refrigerate until cold. Pour mixture into ice cube
trays, filling only half way. Freeze until firm. Before
serving, process chocolate cubes in a food processor
until chopped and slushy. Serve immediately.
The best part about granitas- the Italian version of ices is they
require no ice cream maker. Our mocha version is light and
flavorful, the perfect finale to a rich meal.
