Cocoa-Hazelnut Spread

1/2 teaspoon sea salt
2 tablespoons cocoa powder

1 3.5-ounce milk chocolate bar (Whole Foods 365 Organic brand)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Toast hazelnuts for about 7 minutes or until fragrant. Set aside to cool. Put powdered sugar, salt, cocoa, and chocolate into the food processor. Rub hazelnuts with a kitchen towel to remove some of the thin, dark skins. Add cooled hazelnuts to the mixture and run the food processor until mixture is a fine crumb. While it is still running, slowly drizzle in oil and let machine run until spread is fairly smooth. Store it on the counter in a jar or in the fridge if you want it to be less runny.

Looks like a delicious spread!
Awesome! I love Choco Nut (the vegan Nutella), but I have to order it. This is vegan and much cheaper than ordering. Also, love the design for the book's cover!
Thanks y'all!
Definitely, ingredient wise, beats the other stuff.
Thanks - all the commercial spreads have chocolate. I can't tolerate that nor the sugar. But I'm making mine after soaking toasted ones for a few mins b'c my food processor is a wimp. and then adding a tablespoon of honey and some oil and vanilla and salt.
;)
Hopefully it will work.
