Ingredients
- 120 g raw unpeeled hazelnuts
- 120 g brown sugar
- 80 ml light olive oil (or hazelnut oil)
- 150 g organic dark chocolate chopped
- 200 ml fresh whole milk warmed
Instructions
- Spread the hazelnuts on a baking tray and roast them in a preheated oven to 350ºF (180ºC), stirring them halfway through cooking time, for 10 to 15 minutes, until the hazelnuts are golden brown.
- Place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat for 30 seconds, then stir with a spoon until the chocolate is fully melted and keep the chocolate warm.
- Once the hazelnuts are roasted, place them in a clean tea towel and rub them to loosen the skins. Remove as much of the skins as possible then transfer the warm hazelnuts into a food processor or powerful blender.
- Add the sugar into the food processor and blend the ingredients until smooth, depending on your food processor it may take 2 to 5 minutes. Blend until you have a smooth paste.
- With the motor still running, pour the oil into the food processor, followed by the warm milk and warm chocolate and blend until smooth and fully combined.
- Pour the chocolate hazelnut spread in a large sterilized airtight jar and store in the fridge up to one week.
Notes
- *Make sure both the milk and melted dark chocolate are warm, otherwise the chocolate hazelnut spread won't come together.
- Thermomix Chocolate Hazelnut Spread recipe: I've made this recipe in my Thermomix and the result is a much smoother, rich chocolate hazelnut spread, so if you have it, I encourage you to try this recipe below. Note: You don't need to warm the chocolate and milk for this version.
- Place the roasted hazelnuts and sugar into the Thermomix bowl, and blend for 30 seconds on speed 7.
- Add the chocolate chunks and blend for 30 seconds on speed 6.
- Pour in the milk and oil and blend for 6 minutes on speed 4 at 50°C.
- Pour the chocolate hazelnut spread into sterilized air-tight jars and store in the fridge for up to 1 week.
