Ingredients
- 8 oz hazelnut
- ¼ c cocoa powder
- 4 oz semi-sweet chocolate melted
- ¼ c powdered sugar
- 1 ½ Tbsp vegetable oil or light tasting olive oil
- ½ tsp vanilla extract pure
- ¼ tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F.
- Place the hazelnuts in a single layer on a baking tray and roast for 8-12 minutes, until fragrant. Remove the nuts from the oven and let them cool slightly. Dump the warm nuts into a towel and use the towel to rub them together so that the skins come off. (If not all the skins come off, that is ok and won’t affect the flavor of your nutella too much.)
- Place the de-skinned, roasted hazelnuts into the bowl of your food processor. Process until the nuts are fine. Then continue processing until they form a paste.
- Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl of your food processor and process until smooth. Add a little more oil if you like your spread a bit thinner. (The spread will thicken slightly as it cools.)
- Store your homemade nutella in a sealed container at room temp for 2 weeks - 1 month.
