Chocolate and hazelnut spread
This is definitely better than the stuff in jars!
Ingredients: (makes 1 jar)
• 200 grams hazelnuts (if buying shelled versions, they will need to be shelled then roasted for around 20mins to aid removing the husks).
• 30 grams cup good quality cocoa powder
• 45 grams sugar (can use honey or agave if you prefer unrefined)
• 1 tablespoon of coconut oil
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
• Pinch of sea salt
Method:
1. Blend the hazelnuts in a food processor at high speed until they make a smooth butter. Add in the other ingredients and blend again.
2. Once mixed, add the spread to a clean, sterilised jar.
