Melted Chocolate Microwave Version

  1. Choose to melt the chocolate in a Pyrex type container for 30 second increments and stirring well after each time. Make sure to wipe down the sides each time.

Melted Chocolate Double Broiler Version

  1. Place a cup of water in a small sauce pan and turn stove top to low. Place a heat resistant bowl (Pyrex) on top of the sauce pan but not touching the water. Then pour in the chocolate chips and stir often. The steam will gradually heat up the bowl and melt the chocolate.

Notes

Roasting In the Oven: If you don’t own an air fryer you can roast the nuts in the oven. Just preheat the oven to 400 degrees, and roast for 15-30 minutes, or until the nuts are toasted.

Ninja Foodi and Instant Pot Duo Crisp: You can use these as your air fryer as well. Just use the crisping lid and cook according. If you need batch cook the nuts if you don’t have enough room.

Blender – If you don’t own a food processor, use the pulse feature on the blender to cream up the hazelnut spread.

Store – Homemade Nutella doesn’t need to be placed in the refrigerator. Just place it in an airtight container, stir and use like you would any other hazelnut spread. It will only keep 2 weeks but that should be no problem with how delish it is!
