Save-the-Guilt-for-Something-Else-Nutella

Everyone loves Nutella. And if you don’t, it’s probably just because you have not tried this all-too-delicious-it-must-be-bad-for-you-food. It it something that comes with a little guilt attached, yet since people can’t seem to stay away from it, I was determined to make a healthy version of this chocolate, hazelnut spread.

I do encourage people to incorporate coconut oil into their diet, and through experiance, I know many struggle with how to actually include this fat into their day. Make this spread and kill two birds with one stone: get those essential fats into your body and put your sweet tooth to rest.

Ingredients:

· ½ cup of raw, organic coconut oil

· 1 teaspoon of hazelnut extract

· 1 tablespoons of high quality unsweetened cocoa powder

· 4-5 packets of stevia

Directions:

Combine all ingredients together (just make sure the coconut oil is left out of the fridge, otherwise it will be rock hard). I kind of wish I could give you more instructions to make it sound fancier, but it really is that simple.
