Yummy Inspirations: Cheats Chocolate Hazelnut Spread

My kids just adore this cheats chocolate hazelnut spread, and it takes mere minutes to prepare...

Instead of roasting and peeling hazelnuts, I use the simple shortcut of hazelnut meal/flour - all the hard work has been done for me and it's simply a matter or mixing the ingredients together in my mini food processor. (where to find a mini food processor)

Feel free to double the recipe - I like to use my mini food processor so keep the volume small, if you'd like to make more, then just use a regular sized food processor. We prefer the taste of maple syrup, but feel free to substitute with your preferred sweetener.

I spread the Cheats Chocolate Hazelnut Spread onto pieces of bread which I cut into triangles using a star shaped cutter and the kids LOVED them! (where to find a star shaped cutter)
