Author's Notes

If you can’t find toasted hazelnut, purchase a large bag of raw hazelnuts and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Spread whole hazelnuts on a cookie sheet. Toast for 5-10 minutes (keep an eye on them because they BURN easily). Remove them from the oven.
Use a clean cloth and roll the nuts back and forth to remove the skin. Grind them in a Food Processor.
You can store remaining crushed Hazelnuts in the freezer and use them when needed to top salads, soups, yogurt, ice cream, oatmeal, etc.

Cooking Instructions

Hide images
step 1
Create a double boiler by using a small pot of water on the stove. Take a medium-sized mixing bowl that fits on top of the pot. Fill the pot, but make sure that the water doesn’t boil.
step 2
Fill the medium mixing bowl with the Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips (2 cups). Place bowl over boiling pot. Lower heat, so chocolate chips slowly melt. Slowly stir chips as they melt. This should take 5 to 10 minutes.
step 3
Once chocolate is melted, remove the bowl from the pot. Mix in Kemps Heavy Whipping Cream (2/3 cup), Unsalted Butter (4 Tbsp), and Hazelnuts (1 cup).
step 4
Stir until it is well mixed and the butter is completely melted. Place in refrigerator for 1 hour or until firm.
step 5
Take bowl out of the refrigerator. Pour the Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (4 Tbsp) in a small bowl. With a spoon, scoop out the firm chocolate and roll with hands into a ball.
step 6
Place chocolate ball into cocoa powder and roll around until completely covered.
step 7
Place Chocolate Truffle onto a cookie sheet or large plate lined with parchment paper. Put cookie sheet or large plate in refrigerator for about an hour or until firm.
step 8
Serve and enjoy!
