Homemade Nutella


It took me awhile to jump on the Nutella bandwagon.  Not because I had an aversion to it, but because I didn't know it existed for most of my life.  It wasn't until college that I discovered it, around the same time I discovered Bacardi Limon.  Ah, those were magical times.  By the way, I just threw up a little bit remembering Bacardi Limon, let's never talk about that again, ok?

Back to Nutella.  I would spread it on graham crackers.  I would eat it by the spoonful.  I would love it, like, romantically.  And then we broke up.  Because my 'freshmen 15' was turning into a higher number.  

Anyway, enough about Bacardi Limon WHO BROUGHT THAT UP AGAIN?!  I recently came across this recipe for Homemade Nutella and I decided I should relive the past by making it.  SO WORTH IT.  All the wonderful rich flavor of Nutella with all the earthiness of a homemade Chocolate Hazelnut Spread.  I used nonfat powdered milk (because it's all I could find) and I skipped the honey (because I was too lazy to watch it slowly drip from the bottle).  Delicious.  And SIMPLE.

whole milk and powdered milk...

*after refrigerating for a few hours, spread will thicken to the perfect consistency...
