I have been married to a wonderful Christian man since 1976. The Lord has blessed us with two daughters and two sons. I consider each day the Lord gives me on the earth yet another chance to serve Him.

Nutella

 Good on toast, a banana (freeze it), homemade pop tart or just out of the spoon.  Sometimes I like to take about 1/2 cup of milk chocolate chips and melt them and mix it into the Nutella.   

NUTELLA

(makes 1 cup)


Ingredients:

*1 cup hazelnuts, raw

*2 tablespoons vegetable oil

*1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa

*4 tablespoons powdered sugar

*1/2 teaspoon salt

*1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract


Directions:

~Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 

~Put the hazel nuts on a cookie sheet in a single layer.

`bake for about 6-8 minutes, or until slightly browned and the skins are blistered a little (be careful not to burn them).

~Place the hazelnuts on a kitchen towel and rub vigorously to remove the loose skin.

~Place the hazelnuts in a food processor and grind until they become a paste (about 3-5 minutes).

~Add vegetable oil and blend for another 1-2 minutes.

~Add in sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt, blend for another 1-2 minutes or until smooth.

~Transfer to a container and cover with a lid.
