Step 1 of 10

Turn your oven on at 175°C / 350°F Here are 200g hazelnuts, 250g dark chocolate 60% and a 400g tin of condensate milk. Se supply tab. for American measurement.

Step 2 of 10

Roast the hazelnuts in the oven for 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally. Rub the hazelnuts in a the-towel to get the brown "skin" off.

Step 3 of 10

Blitz the hazelnuts until a peanut-butter consistency. You can get it more creamy than this but I like a bit of crunch.

Step 4 of 10

Melt your chocolate in a double boiler. Make sure that no water or steam comes into the chocolate, it will ruin the chocolate by making it lumpy.

Step 5 of 10

Ummm melted chocolate

Step 6 of 10

Add the condensed milk while still on the heat, stir it in until you have an creamy even mix.

Step 7 of 10

Chocolate and condensed milk.

Step 8 of 10

Stir the chocolate/condensed milk into the hazelnut butter.

Step 9 of 10

Thick creamy Nutella.

Step 10 of 10

It tastes just like the real deal. It is about half price of store bought Nutella. Will keep in the fridge for a month. I have to try baking with it or in ice cream. ❤

Dear Ian. With only 3 ingredients, quality is very important. 99% dark chocolate wow I don't think I've ever tried that. I'm glad you liked the end result and I'm looking forward to your guide on ganache.

Karen Larard (author) last month

I just made your version of Nutella and I must say that it is simply delicious as expected. I changed the recipe a bit. Used 0.22 lb of 99% dark chocolate with 0.22 lb of Swiss processed cocoa powder and increased the condensed milk to 1 lb. Thanks for your guide and I'll upload the ganache as soon as your Nutella is savoured... which will be quite soon.

Dear Chloe. It is really easy to make so give it a try and let me know what you think. A bonus is that it is also cheap.

Karen Larard (author) last month

Dear Ian. This is easy and very tasteful. Let me know what you think once you made it. Please share your ganache.

Karen Larard (author) last month

Amazing! :)

Oh wow! I've been making ganache and whilst it is good, I have to be careful following the methods required. Your variation I think looks so appetizing and rich. I'm definitely trying it out after I get hold of the hazel nuts. Thank you Karen.

Kære Kirsten. Det kan holde sig ca. 2 måneder, måske længere, men vi har aldrig prøvet at have den så længe, den bliver simpelthen spist længe før. 😄

Hvor lang tid kan det cirka holde sig i køleskab? :)

Dear Vern I tell you this is highly addictive 😝

Dear Peter I find that making your own home cooked or home made is always rewarding 😄Putting a lid on a jar of marmalade or Nutella you have made yourself is so satisfying. 😄

Karen Larard (author) 8 months ago

Fabulous, another treat I will be addicted to!😍

Vern Burg 8 months ago

Brilliant! This is more rewarding than the brand itself.

Dear Goi Nutella was invented in the 1940ties I don't know by who. This recipe is a combination of many recipes that I found online and just tried out and then made my own variation, so I can't take credit for this. I'm glad you like it.

Whoever invented nuttella should win noble price! And u! R a pure genius! Absolutely love it!

Eshan, try looking for "Filberts" - sometimes hazelnuts are called filberts.

Dear Eshan try peanut or almond, almond may get you a marzipan flavour but that can't be bad. Let me know how it works out.

Karen Larard (author) 9 months ago

Any substitute for hazelnuts? They aren't available in my area.

Eshan Juneja 9 months ago

Dear Sue it is easy. When I added the condensed milk to the chocolate it did cool the chocolate down and made it a bit lumpy, so may be you should warm the milk up a bit before adding it. Let me know what you think.

Karen Larard (author) 9 months ago

This looks amazing! My kids love nutella, and this looks pretty easy - only 3 ingredients. Can't wait to try x

Dear Can you are right it is very addictive 😝

Karen Larard (author) 9 months ago

This is so good. Might as well call it "how to make crack". Thanks for sharing!

Dear Melisa in my opinion it tastes better than the original Nutella because it is not so sweet and you can taste the hazelnuts much more.

Karen Larard (author) 9 months ago

Dear Chloe of cause you can use milk chocolate, I do think it will be very sweet. I think 50/50 would be better. Half milk-half dark chocolate. Try it and let me know what you think. My youngest want me to make it with white chocolate but she have a very very sweet tooth😄

Karen Larard (author) 9 months ago

Dear Melisa Yes this has " only" the sugar from the chocolate and the condensed milk, it is an only now and then treat.

Karen Larard (author) 9 months ago

Can you use milk chocolate? Do you think it would be too sweet?

chloe stylinson 9 months ago

Looks like a healthier version of nutella. The real nutella had a looooooot of sugar

Melisa Polisi 9 months ago

Does it taste just like nutella. (or... If it tastes better than nutella)

Melisa Polisi 9 months ago

Dear Ashley. I don't know the price of Nutella where you live, but here in Denmark we have a special extra tax on fat and sugar, so Nutella is expensive.

Karen Larard (author) 9 months ago

Looks moorish and the idea it's cheaper is a big plus

Ashley Tennant 9 months ago

Dear Akshay I just blitzed them dry. The oil in the nuts will make them like this, just like if you were making peanut butter or marzipan the oil in the peanuts and in the almonds will make the mix creamy
