Instructions:

  1. Roast the Hazelnuts
    Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Spread 195 g (1½ cups) raw hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast for 10–12 minutes until skins crack and nuts are fragrant.
  2. Remove the Skins
    Wrap warm hazelnuts in a clean kitchen towel and rub vigorously to remove most of the skins.
  3. Blend
    Place hazelnuts in a food processor and blend for 5–7 minutes, scraping the sides as needed, until completely smooth and creamy.
  4. Add Remaining Ingredients
    Add 25 g (¼ cup) cocoa powder, 60 g (½ cup) powdered sugar or maple syrup, 60 ml (¼ cup) neutral oil, 1 tsp vanilla extract, ½ tsp salt, and optional 60 ml (¼ cup) plant-based milk. Blend until smooth and spreadable.
  5. Adjust and Store
    Add more oil or milk for a thinner spread. Transfer to an airtight jar. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

Common Mistakes, Notes, Prep in Advance, Storage, Swaps & Tips

Notes:

  • Blending hazelnuts takes patience — keep going for 5–7 minutes and scrape sides regularly until truly creamy.
  • The more skins you remove, the smoother and less bitter the final spread.

Storage:

  • Refrigerate in an airtight jar for up to 2 weeks. Let sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before spreading if it’s too firm.

Swaps:

  • Use maple syrup instead of powdered sugar for a less sweet, more natural version.
  • Replace hazelnuts with almonds or cashews for a different nut butter chocolate spread.

Tips:

  • Roasting is the key step — it deepens the hazelnut flavor dramatically and makes the skins easier to remove.
