Yield Serves 6-7

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups half and half (500 mililiters)
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 ounce butter (15 grams) butter
Zest of 1 orange
1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped
4 eggs
5 1/2 ounces caster (superfine) sugar (150 grams)
1 brioche loaf
2 tablespoons homemade chocolate hazelnut spread
1 cup blueberries (9 1/2 ounces/270 grams)
1 1/2 fluid ounces coconut oil (50 milliliters)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F (175°C).
  • Put the cream, honey, butter, orange zest and vanilla bean in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring, and remove from the heat.
  • Put the eggs and sugar in a large bowl and whisk to combine.
  • Pour the hot cream mixture over the egg mixture and whisk to combine.
  • Using a bread knife, cut the crust off the brioche loaf to create a square log. Slice the loaf in half lengthways. Spread both halves with chocolate hazelnut spread, like you're making a big sandwich, then add the blueberries to the middle and close the sandwich.
  • Soak the brioche loaf in the warm egg custard for 10 minutes, or until it's well soaked.
  • Put coconut oil in a medium pan over medium heat and cook the brioche loaf until it's golden brown all over, then finish in the oven for 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel and slice into fingers.

Yield Makes 1 X 1 lb (450g) jar

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup blanched hazelnuts
3 1/2 oz (100g) dark chocolate (72% cacao), chopped
1/3 cup and 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
1-2 tablespoons hazelnut oil
Pinch of salt
3-4 tablespoons hot water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Turn the hazelnuts out onto a baking sheet and toast in the preheated oven for about 5-7 minutes, until pale golden. Remove the nuts from the oven and cool slightly. Put the warm hazelnuts into a food processor and chop until they become an almost smooth paste.
  • Gently melt the chocolate, condensed milk, and hazelnut oil in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until smooth and add to the hazelnut paste in the food processor. Add a pinch of salt and blend, then add the hot water and blend again until the mixture has a thick, spreadable consistency.
  • Spoon into a pretty sterilized jar and let cool. Cover with a lid and label when cold.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of your chocolate and hazelnut spread.
  • Roast the hazelnuts before using them. This will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Use a food processor or blender to grind the hazelnuts into a smooth paste. Be patient and keep blending until the paste is completely smooth.
  • Add the melted chocolate to the hazelnut paste slowly, while the food processor or blender is running. This will help to prevent the chocolate from seizing.
  • Stir in any additional flavorings, such as vanilla extract or salt, to taste.
  • Transfer the chocolate and hazelnut spread to a clean jar or container. Cover tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
