Charishmas Tasty Home Made Nutella Recipes

HOMEMADE NUTELLA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180C/350F.
• Place hazelnuts on a baking tray, roast for 8 minutes or until golden. Transfer into blender.
• Blend on the lowest speed until the nuts are ground into a crumb. Scrape down the sides as necessary. Then increase the speed to 4 until it turns into a paste. You may need to scrape down the sides - in my Vitamix blender, I did not have to. Then increase the speed as high as it will go and whizz until it becomes smooth with a consistency like honey.
• Add remaining ingredients, then whizz, starting on low and increasing to high. Whizz until smooth - the sugar takes the longest to dissolve (Note 3).
• Pour into a jar - it will be lovely and warm. Allow to cool to spread consistency. Do not refrigerate as the sugar will crystallise and it will become grainy.
• Use as you do Nutella! Especially fabulous with Nutella Crepes!

CHARISHMA'S TASTY HOME MADE NUTELLA

Steps:

• 1. Process hazelnuts in a blender or a food processor on high power until they begin to form a smooth nut batter.
• Then melt the coconut oil and cacao paste in a double boiler.
• Stir in the honey smoothly.
• Add the above prepared mixture to the hazelnut batter.
• Fold in salt.
• Blend all of these together until very smooth. You will need to add water to get the desired consistency of nutella.
• Enjoy nutella on bread and keep making more.

NUTELLA® PASTRY CHRISTMAS TREE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Roll out one puff pastry sheet into a large rectangle on a lightly floured surface and place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Lightly score puff pastry into the shape of a Christmas tree (triangle) with a wide base. Spread chocolate-hazelnut spread over the triangle in a thin layer with the back of a spoon.
• Roll out the second sheet of puff pastry to a large rectangle and place on top of the first one. Carefully trace the shape of the chocolate covered triangle underneath and cut out the Christmas tree shape and the trunk. Pull away excess pastry.
• Lightly score 2 lines down the middle of the triangle to form a tree trunk that is narrower at the top and gets wider towards the base. Using the trunk as a guide, cut branches into the sides of the triangle.
• Twist the branches away from you, trying to get in 2 turns on the lower branches. Continue moving up the tree, twisting away from you as you go.
• Cut a small star out of the excess pastry; place on top of the tree. Brush the star and tree with beaten egg.
• Bake in the preheated oven until puffy and golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Slide onto a serving plate, using a piece of parchment paper if needed.
