Homemade Nutella -- Better Than the Real Thing! image

Many European kids have grown up eating Nutella, I'm no exception & my kids love the stuff too. These days though, Nutella is becoming increasingly more expensive & as a mother of 2 young children, I'm also worried about what they're eating. This homemade version of Nutella is very simple to make & has only 3 ingredients. This is a recipe by Stephanie Gallagher.

Time 12m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 1/2 cups chopped hazelnuts
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips or 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 -2 tablespoon canola oil (I use sunflower oil)

Steps:

  • Place the hazelnuts in a dry skillet and toast over medium heat 2 to 4 minutes or until just starting to brown.
  • Place the hazelnuts and the chocolate chips in the work bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Process for 3 to 5 minutes until the mixture starts to become smooth.
  • Drizzle in one tablespoon of oil while continuing to process. If necessary, add another tablespoon of oil until the mixture becomes smooth and spreadable.
  • Store in the fridge in a clean jar or lidded container for upto 2 weeks. You will probably need to mix the spread before each use as the oil can separate.
