- Melt chocolate in top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching. Let cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
- Pour aquafaba into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until fluffy and quadrupled in volume, about 1 minute. Add xanthan gum and beat for 30 seconds. Add icing sugar and vanilla sugar; continue beating until foam is firm and glossy, about 2 minutes more.
- Fold melted chocolate gently into whipped foam until thoroughly incorporated. Transfer to a lidded container.
- Freeze until firm, 8 hours to overnight.

Amazing! I can't believe that the water from beans can make such a fluffy delight. The end result is a frozen mousse type of dessert rather than a heavy ice cream. It's decadent. Leave it out of the freezer about 5 minutes before trying to scoop it out, it gets pretty hard. Thank you for the recipe. - 09 Jun 2016 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
