- Stir in everything else
- Pour into a clingfilm lined tray, or a foil disposable, make sure the hazelnuts are equally dispersed.

Healthy whole nut chocolate
Ingredients
Method
200g toasted hazelnuts, they really need to be toasted as the flavour is a million times better. If you have bought untoasted simply add them to a medium heat frying pan and fry for around 5 minutes until golden all over, shake/rub off the skins if they have them on after toasting.
200g raw cacao butter (again online or Holland and barrett)
100g coconut sugar or maple syrup
sea salt (develops the flavour of chocolate so much, I prefer pink salt but sea salt flakes are fine)
1tsp vanilla
60g raw cacao powder
