Nutella, yummy home made

My lovely ladies my grandma says they never bought filling for cakes always they used the home made ones and here is one that you can use to fill cakes or decorate any cupcakes ….

Ingredients

1/2 cup hazelnut butter (or almond butter)
1-2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (or even better is raw cacao powder which has not been processed at all and retains all the antioxidants and no sugar)
1-2 tablespoons raw honey or maple syrup,I used honey.

Method

1. Place hazelnut butter in a  bowl.
2. Add cocoa powder and mix it into the nut butter with a fork.
3. Mix in honey or maple syrup. Taste and adjust seasonings. If you need to thin the mixture, add hazelnut oil, walnut oil, or coconut oil (warmed to liquid consistency).
Voila ready to yum yum…

To make your own hazelnut butter, toast hazelnuts on a cookie sheet in a 400 degrees oven for about 10 minutes. Remove as much of the nut skins as possible in a damp towel, add to a food processor and process into a paste.
