How to Make Hazelnut Truffles

  1. In a medium-sized, heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt 1 (14-ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk, 12 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips, and 1/2 cup of hazelnut spread over medium-low heat. Stir constantly until completely smooth and blended.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup of finely chopped hazelnuts.
  3. Let the mixture cool completely in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours, or until firm enough to handle.
  4. Using a melon baller or small spoon, scoop out portions of the cooled mixture and roll into 1-inch balls.
  5. Roll the truffles in 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder or powdered sugar for a delightful finish.
  6. Store any leftover truffle mixture, tightly wrapped in plastic wrap, in the refrigerator for up to three months.
  7. Before serving, allow refrigerated truffles to sit at room temperature for a few minutes to avoid condensation.
