 Home-made  Nutella/ Hazelnut Spread

 Ingredients
½ Cup Hazelnut
3 tbpsn Dark Chocolate Chips
2-3 tbspn Maple syrup
1 tspn Vanila extract
Pinch of salt

Directions
First step is to de-skin the Hazelnuts.
For that place the Hazelnuts in one layer in a baking sheet .
Transfer the tray to a 275 Degrees preheated oven to 15 -25 minutes, until the skin start to crack.
While the nuts are still hot, place the nuts on a kitchen towel, wrap and rub vigorously b/w hands until you are tired and Viola the nuts are de-skinned.
Blend the hazelnuts until it forms a paste. Add the remaining ingredients , continue blending until smooth paste is formed.[You can add more maple syrup or coconut Oil or even milk to achieve the desired consistency. If adding milk, try to finish off the spread in 4-5 days as shelf life may not be high]

  7. Another tempting recipe ..have got to try this one ..i haven't come across any maple syrup here, but I think we can substitute it with honey?
    Also can we use chopped slab of cadburys chocolate instead of the choc chips?

    Will try this out as soon as we return to Blore!
