\u00a0Nutella.\u00a0 Yum.\u00a0 Chocolate hazelnut spread.\u00a0 Yum.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I only recently added Nutella into my baking life, and posted about that when I made Ferraro Rocher cupcakes<\/a>.\u00a0 I haven’t looked back since!\u00a0 I enjoy the process of recipe testing and finding a way to make things in my own way, so when I needed more Nutella for an upcoming recipe, I knew I had to figure out how to make it myself.<\/p>\n The recipe is fairly simple, and what I like about making things homemade is that you know exactly what is in it.\u00a0 During my research, I started to notice that many products have ‘modified palm oil’. What in the world is that?\u00a0 I always have to question what a product is if you can’t buy it yourself at the grocery store.\u00a0 At least when I put butter in something, I know it came from a cow!<\/p>\n Yesterday, a story broke in Time <\/a>that the price of Nutella is rising, due to the damaged hazelnut crops in Turkey (which provides 70% of the hazelnut supply!).\u00a0 So, grab your hazelnuts in bulk while you still can, and get making this!\u00a0<\/p>\n
