How to Make Chocolate Hazelnut Spread Nutella

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Spread 1 cup hazelnuts in a single layer on a shallow baking sheet.
  3. Toast for 12-15 minutes, or until skins are dark brown and fragrant, shaking the pan halfway through.
  4. Immediately transfer the hot hazelnuts to a clean kitchen towel. Wrap tightly and let them steam for 5 minutes.
  5. Once cool enough to handle, rub the hazelnuts vigorously in the towel to remove most of the skins. Discard the skins.
  6. Add the skinned hazelnuts to a food processor. Process until a smooth paste forms, scraping down the sides as needed (about 5-7 minutes).
  7. In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (double boiler), combine the sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, and honey.
  8. Stir occasionally until the chocolate chips are completely melted and the mixture is smooth (about 3-5 minutes). Make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water.
  9. Remove from heat and let the chocolate mixture cool slightly.
  10. Add the melted chocolate mixture to the food processor with the hazelnut paste.
  11. Process until completely smooth and well combined (about 2-3 minutes).
  12. Transfer the Nutella to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
