Homemade Nutella

Making Hazelnut Paste In a food processor or high-powered blender, blend the hazelnuts until they turn into a smooth paste. This may take a few minutes.

Adding Other Ingredients Add the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, salt, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the hazelnut paste. Continue blending until all the ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth and creamy. If desired, you can add the milk at this stage for a creamier texture.

Storing Homemade Nutella Transfer the homemade Nutella to a jar or airtight container. The spread can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
