Ingredients

400 g Raw hazelnuts
150 g Dark or milk chocolate (chopped)
3–4 tbsp Powdered sugar or honey
1–2 tbsp Neutral oil (optional for smoothness)
¼ tsp Sea salt
½ tsp Vanilla extract

Method

Preheat oven to 180 °C (350 °F) → spread hazelnuts on baking sheet → roast 10–15 minutes until skins crack and nuts are golden → cool slightly.
Rub hazelnuts in clean towel to remove most skins (some skin is fine for flavor).
Add roasted hazelnuts to food processor → process 10–20 minutes, scraping sides often, until very smooth and oily (goes through crumb → ball → runny stages).
Melt chocolate in double boiler or microwave in 20-second bursts → stir until smooth.
With processor running, slowly pour in melted chocolate → process 1–2 minutes until fully blended.
Add powdered sugar/honey + salt + vanilla → process 30 seconds → add oil 1 tsp at a time if needed for smoother consistency.
Taste & adjust sweetness/salt → process 30 seconds more.
Transfer to clean jar → cool to room temp → refrigerate up to 3 weeks (stir before use).
Makes ≈550 g — rich, creamy homemade chocolate hazelnut spread.
