- STEP 2Preheat your oven as 180C. Scatter the hazelnuts on an ovenproof tray. Toast the hazelnuts in the oven for 5 minutes. They should look marginally golden. Leave to cool. Whizz the hazelnuts in a food processor until they are finely ground.
- STEP 3Chop your chocolate into shards so they melt quicker. In a saucepan over a low heat melt the chocolate, condensed milk and oil together. Stir together until amalgamated.
- STEP 4Pour this mixture into the food processor with the hazelnuts and a pinch of salt and 6tbsps of hot water.
- STEP 5Blend until it is at a spreadable consistency. Spoon the chocolate spread into the hot sterilised jars while the spread is still hot. Leave to cool with the lids off and then seal. Decorate the jars with a label with a use by date etcâ¦
- STEP 6These yummy jars of scrumptiousness can be kept in the fridge for up to a month.
