Nutella is the stuff dreams are made of. Everyone loves it, and we all can find a million things to do with it. So to start I figured why not make my own instead of buying it. I still had tons of hazelnuts left, even after making this pie. I researched a bunch of different recipes. There are so many out there. It was hard to decide what to do. There seemed to be 2 directions – honey as the sweetener or powdered sugar. Personally, I don’t eat Nutella for the health benefits – so I picked powdered sugar! Seemed like it would be closest to the original that way.
It is a little richer than store bought. I roasted the hazelnuts, and they really come through. It is still the sweet delicious Nutella I love, just more intense. It was pretty darn easy too. Just let the food processor work for a few minutes, melt some chocolate, and you are about done. And there are some yummy things you can do with it too! Or you can just enjoy it for breakfast on an English Muffin, one of my favorites! Just wait for the follow up to this post 
If that isn’t a teaser, I don’t know what is!

Nutella is relatively new to me. I bought my first jar for a challenge back in January. I do like it but eat it sparingly. Your homemade versions looks very rich and delicious!

Yup, that sounds fantastic. I still have my first container of Nutella in the cupboard though. I love hazelnuts but at the end of the day, I can't get past the chocolate thing.

Homemade nutella is one of those things I keep meaning to make. But, then again, I would probably eat the whole lot with a spoon. Not a good look!

ok, I will definitely make this myself. Nutella is my absolute obsession. this recipe sounds easy and you actually seem to end up with something close to nutella, means it has nuts, chocolate and sugar (honey…wtf??) in it. I'm already a fan!

Yum is all I can say. I won't buy it as I'll eat the whole jar by myself in days, I'm sure. The one time I tasted it – heavenly!

I am afraid to make this, because I might eat the whole thing with a spoon – but I think I'll make it anyways!
Thanks for sharing, Erin…
