Perfect for adding to crepes or pancakes, or eating by the spoonful....
Ingredients:
2 cups raw hazelnuts
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/3 cup maple syrup
1.5 t vanilla
1/4 t salt
milk, if necessary to achieve smooth consistency
Roast hazelnuts in a 350 degree oven for 10-15 minutes, until they start to brown.
Remove from the oven, allow to cool, and then rub them in a clean towel to remove as much of the skins as possible.
Add them to the bowl of a food processor or high speed blender and add the rest of the ingredients.
Mix until desired consistency is reached; if it seems too think, add a little milk of choice or oil while blending.
Store in refrigerator if you do use milk... and if you do have any left over!
