So I just got back from having a visit with my sister! Before I left she made me this fabulous gift! A jar of homemade Nutella just for me!
Well, this is possibly the most amazing thing on the planet! It is not as sweet as the store bought and it just tastes so incredible… I would say it’s like grown up Nutella! I am one spoiled sister!!
So far I’ve eaten it on well, .. um … a spoon… and a banana! It would be amazing on toast or ice cream or.. anything! My daughter told me it tastes like a brownie on a spoon!
Give it a try yourself!

Instructions
-
Toast the hazelnuts at 375 for 10-15 minutes until fragrant & the skins split
-
Place the nuts on a tea towel and rub them to get as many of the skins off as possible
-
Transfer to a food processor (while warm) and puree into a paste (like thick peanut butter)
-
While the nuts puree, warm the milk, powdered milk, honey and salt over medium heat until it JUST starts to boil
-
Melt the chocolate in double boiler or in the microwave (on lower power) until smooth
-
With the food processor running, slowly add the melted chocolate to the ground nuts (scrape the sides if required)
-
Add the warm milk & honey to the processor and puree until smooth
-
Pour the mixture into a jar/container (it will thicken upon cooling)
-
Allow the mixture to cool and store in the fridge

Homemade Nutella
This recipe was provided to me by my sister (thanks sis!) and is an adaptation of David Lebovitz take on a recipe found in the Encyclopedie du Chocolat! David was kind enough to share this on his fabulous blog – Living the Sweet Life in Paris for all of us to enjoy! Thanks David! <3
This looks great, I am excited to try it, but have one question. Do you have any idea on how long the jar will keep in the fridge before going bad? Just curious.
Thanks!
Mine was fine for a couple of weeks. :) Enjoy!
I buy nutella at the store all the time and it is exspensive .I’m glad you shared this recipe, and it is also good in coffee . I will share this with my family thank you !
I’ve never heard of putting it in coffee! What a neat idea! Can’t wait to try it!
I have a question. Why have you disabled the ability for us to print this or copy and paste it. Do you expect us to copy it down by hand? Most of us don’t have time for that……..
I’m not sure why the “print” wasn’t showing up on this recipe… I have edited the post and it should work now. :)
I have made this before, I am allergic to hazelnuts and diary so I use almonds and almond milk and it is equally as good.
Thank you for this! I like Nutella but it’s a tad too sweet for me – I love I can adjust it however I want with this recipe!
Wow home made nuterlla, wow you r just awesome. Will try my hands on this soon.
this looks so delicious… i will have to try and make this.
We’ll have to try this. It sounds great.
looks and sounds great! definitely gonna have to give it a try.
When I first heard about Nutella people were saying they were addicted to it. I tried it and i see what they meant, thanks for the recipe

I am addicted to Nutella, lol Sadly tho it’s very fattening, and is expensive. I may try this and see if I can substitute other nuts like cashews. Might as well make it really fattening, LOL Thanks for sharing :)
How cool to be able to make this yourself. Any way to save money these days is work pursuing. Thanks for the recipe.
I will definitely try your Neutella recipe. My grandchildren love it…and it’s expensive. Thanks for sharing.
I love nutella it is nice that there is a recipe that will hopefully save me some money thank you!
Thanks for posting a recipe for homemade Nutella. Sounds delicious. My grand daughter calls it Chocolate Sauce. Will have to make her some!
I must try this out! YUM! Would be an awesome addition to gift baskets, or just a movie night snack! Thanks!
What a great product I could use to put in my holiday gift baskets! Thanks for the recipe!
OH W.O.W.!!!! I think I could hug you and your sister! We love Nutella so we definitely have to try this! My son will love it!
Oh my goodness my kids love nutella! Thank you for sharing this it seems so simple and yummy their going to love it. Off to the store in the morn to grab some hazelnuts. Yo
ur blog is awesome!
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! My daughter and her friends love it!
I am definitely going to check this out…..we got hooked on Nutella when we lived in Germany for many years…and the idea of being able to control the recipe and add what we like, and tone down what we don’t care for…is awesome… ( the kids like more cocoa, I like more hazelnuts…go figure!)
Thank you for sharing, have been looking for this home-made nutella and The Lucky Ladybug sent me to your page .. yea! I will definitely try this out, my son loves NUTELLA! Question tho – wonder if the flavor will change with almond milk instead of regular milk? (my son can’t drink regular milk). Thank you!
Let us know how it works with Almond milk!!
WHAT!?!?! Oh my…totally am going to have to try this! :)
Loved this recipe! Nutella is very expensive and hard to find in Tokyo (where I used to live). I already shared the recipe on my FB page and will email the recipe to some special friends! Thanks!
OH MY! I may have just fell in love with you and your sister! lol THANK YOU! I would much rather make this than buy it!
LOL! Enjoy!
