Ingredients
  

  • 500 grams hazelnuts
  • 6 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 50-60 grams icing powder (or more, to taste)
  • 1-2 tbsp olive oil or coconut oil
  • 1 pinch salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Start by preheating the oven to 175C and line a large baking tray with parchment paper. Add the hazelnuts in a single layer and roast for 10-15 minutes until golden (do NOT let them burn)
  • Let them to cool for a few minutes and add them to a clean tea towel and rub to remove most of the skins.
  • Add to your food processor and blend until they turn into nut butter (you will need to stop to scrape down the sides a couple of times) - this should take around 5 minutes.
  • Once smooth (mostly - there will likely still be some lumps), add in the cocoa powder, icing sugar, olive oil and generous pinch of salt and blend again until thoroughly combined and a delicious chocolate-y nut butter has formed. You can use liquid sweeteners if you would prefer, but beware that this will cause the nut butter to 'seize up' and have a different texture. Taste and add any more ingredients to taste and store in an airtight jar or container.
