HOMEMADE NUTELLA® (CHOCOLATE-HAZELNUT SPREAD)



Homemade Nutella® (Chocolate-Hazelnut Spread) image

We were able to purchase fresh hazelnuts while in Portland last fall. This is one of the many ways to enjoy them. Hoping for a 'healthier' version of the store-bought variety, dark chocolate is used here with great results (for dark chocolate lovers) or it may be made with milk chocolate for the more traditional flavor.

Time 30m

Yield 32

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup hazelnuts
3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
½ teaspoon vanilla extract, or more to taste
½ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
1 (12 ounce) bag dark chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Spread hazelnuts onto a baking sheet and roast in preheated oven until slightly browned and the skins are slightly blistered, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Spread a kitchen towel onto a flat work surface. Put the hazelnuts in the middle of the towel and wrap the towel around the nuts. Roll towel vigorously to strip the nuts from as much of the skins as you can remove. Discard skins and set nuts aside to cool completely.
  • Put hazelnuts in a food processor and grind into a paste; add sugar, canola oil, cocoa powder, vanilla, and salt. Continue to process the mixture until it is as smooth as you can get it.
  • Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching. Pour chocolate into the food processor and blend into the hazelnut mixture. Use a spatula to transfer into a container with a tight-fitting lid, but cool completely at room temperature before sealing tightly.

Yield Makes 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups (heaping) hazelnuts, preferably skinned (about 10 ounces)
1/4 cup sugar
1 pound semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into 1" pieces, room temperature
1 cup heavy cream
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Special Equipment
Four clean 8-ounce jars

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread out nuts on a rimmed baking sheet or in an ovenproof skillet. Roast, shaking sheet once for even toasting, until deep brown, 13-15 minutes. Let cool completely. (If nuts have skins, rub them in a kitchen towel to remove.)
  • Grind hazelnuts and sugar in a food processor until a fairly smooth, buttery paste forms, about 1 minute.
  • Place chocolate in a medium metal bowl. Set bowl over a large saucepan of simmering water; stir often until chocolate is melted and smooth. Remove bowl from over saucepan; add butter and whisk until completely incorporated. Whisk in cream and salt, then hazelnut paste.
  • Pour gianduja into jars, dividing equally. Let cool. (Gianduja will thicken and become soft and peanut butter- like as it cools.) Screw on lids. DO AHEAD: Gianduja can be made up to 4 weeks ahead; keep chilled. Let stand at room temperature for 4 hours to soften. Can stand at room temperature up to 4 days.

CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT SPREAD (MOCK NUTELLA FROM GALE GAND)



Chocolate Hazelnut Spread (Mock Nutella from Gale Gand) image

Recipe courtesy Gale Gand. Keeps 1 month, covered, at room temperature. Try it on Recipe #328906. Some Nutella history: Chocolate and hazelnut is a classic taste combination in northern Italy, where it goes by the name of 'gianduia' (pronounced jon doo ya). Pietro Ferrero, a candy maker in Italy, blended the two into a spread in 1946, and the company that carries on its production says that Nutella has grown to become the best-selling sweet spread in the world. For another (simpler) but lower calorie version, try Recipe #328643

Provided by 2Bleu

Categories     Kid Friendly

Time 10m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 ounces peeled toasted hazelnuts (see note)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 ounces milk chocolate, chopped and melted

Steps:

  • In a food processor, grind the hazelnuts into a paste. Add the oil, sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla and continue processing. Add the melted chocolate and blend well.
  • Strain the mixture through a fine strainer to remove any large grains of nuts. The mixture will be thin and a little warm. Pour into a jar to let cool and thicken slightly.
  • NOTE: To roast and peel hazelnuts: Preheat oven to 350°F Place nuts in a single layer on a shallow baking pan. Toast until the skins are almost black and the meat is dark brown, about 15 minutes, stirring halfway through baking so ensure an even color. Let cool, then place the nuts in a clean kitchen towel or paper towel, and rub until most of the skins have come off.

CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT SPREAD



Chocolate Hazelnut Spread image

Hazelnuts are toasted and then blended with chocolate chips to make a spread that rivals the popular brand. Serve with French bread or it's even good on crackers.

Provided by your mom

Categories     Side Dish     Sauces and Condiments Recipes

Time 25m

Yield 32

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 ½ cups hazelnuts
¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Spread hazelnuts on the sheet in an even layer. Bake until skins have split and nuts are fragrant, 10 to 15 minutes; rub with a damp towel and blow the skins away. If they cooled off when you removed the skins, go ahead and warm them in the oven again. This will help them to release more oil.
  • Combine the nuts and chocolate chips in the bowl of a food processor. Add the honey and process into a smooth paste, adding more oil if needed. Spoon into a container and store at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use fresh hazelnuts: Fresh hazelnuts will have a sweeter, more flavorful taste than stale hazelnuts. If you can, buy hazelnuts in bulk and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to six months.
  • Roast the hazelnuts before using them: Roasting the hazelnuts will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant. To roast hazelnuts, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake them at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fragrant.
  • Use a food processor to make the hazelnut chocolate spread: A food processor will make quick work of grinding the hazelnuts and chocolate together. If you don't have a food processor, you can use a blender, but it may take a little longer to get the desired consistency.
  • Add a little bit of salt to the hazelnut chocolate spread: Salt will help to balance out the sweetness of the spread and make it more flavorful.
  • Store the hazelnut chocolate spread in an airtight container in the refrigerator: The spread will keep for up to two weeks in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

Hazelnut chocolate spread is a delicious and versatile spread that can be used on a variety of foods, from toast and waffles to pancakes and ice cream. It's also a great addition to baked goods, such as cookies, brownies, and cakes. With its rich, chocolatey flavor and nutty crunch, hazelnut chocolate spread is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.
