Instructions

  2. To make more thin: add more water
  3. To thicken up:let sit in the fridge for a couple of hours.

Notes

  • To make nut-free: use sunflower butter.
  • Helpful Tips
  • For a lot less sugar and calories, you can get your sweet chocolate fix in a much healthier way!
  • For a thinner consistency, add more water.
  • For a thicker consistency, let sit in the fridge for a couple of hours.
  • For the most similar taste as nutella, use hazelnut butter. Other nut butters work just fine! It just might have more of whatever kind of nut butter you use taste!
  • If you don’t have hazelnut butter, I would say sunflower butter or cashew butter would be the next best thing because they are more neutral tasting butters. But it still tastes amazing with almond butter and peanut butter too!
  • If you need nut free, use sunflower butter.
  • Normal cocoa powder works best for this recipe (over dark cocoa powder) for best taste and flavor
  • Store frosting in the fridge for 30 minutes after making it to thicken
  • Keep stored in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
