Decadent Hazelnut Chocolate Butter

I was never a huge fan of Nutella, for me it was always too sickly sweet and the added dairy has always left me feeling bloated and unwell. However, I do love the combination of hazelnuts and chocolate so I thought I would share my own raw chocolate nut butter with you. Its super easy to make, contains an invaluable amount of antioxidants and won’t leave you with any bloating or unnecessary blood glucose high. The addition of the raw honey is optional. For me, I usually leave it out as I find the hazelnuts give enough of there own natural sweetness but if you have a sweet tooth then the addition of some honey will only heighten the decadence of this chocolatey goo butter.
