I found the recipe for home-made Nutella. Only that it's far better than the "real" Nutella. The real one consists of 55% sugar. Our consists of 70% hazelnuts :-)
The funny thing is that it is really easy to make. The ingredients:
300 g whole hazelnuts
100 g powdered sugar
10 g Bourbon vanilla sugar
30 g cocoa powder
2 tablespoons of hazelnut oil
1. Toasting nuts: Preheat the oven to 170 deg. Spread hazelnuts in a single layer on a baking pan and toast them for 15 minutes (they turn almost black). When they're done, wrap them in a kitchen towel and rub them until the skins come off. I removed the remaining skin by hand.
2. Process the toasted nuts: We used a Braun hand-mixer to chop the hazelnuts. Then you just keep on chopping them until they turn to liquid :-) Seriously. It only takes a couple of minutes. It turned out that a decent food processor (you know, multipraktik :-) is the way to go. If you process them with one of those, no additional fat/oil is needed.
3. Add the (sifted) sugar and (sifted) cocoa powder. Mix.
4. Carefully add the hazelnut oil to make the mixture spreadable. Mix.
5. Enjoy!
6. As the taste is VERY rich, we added a bit of milk to the mixture just before using it. It was just to strong for MiniMojcek Nr.1. Probably cream would be even better but we didn't have it at home.
