Ingredients

100g hazelnuts
2-3 tablespoons honey
25-50g finely grated dark dairy free chocolate (100% cacao bar is very good for this)
½ cup Lactofree Fresh Whole

Method

1. Preheat oven to 180C/359F/Gas Mark 4
2. On a baking tray, toast hazelnuts in middle of oven for about 10 minutes, or until lightly coloured and skins are blistered. Wrap nuts in a kitchen towel and let steam 1 minute. Rub nuts in towel to remove loose skins. Then blend the hazelnuts as fine as possible
In a pot heat up the Lactofree Whole, and melt the chocolate and stir until melted.
3. Add the chocolate mixture to the hazelnuts in the blender, and blend for a few minutes until completely smooth.
4. Add the honey to the mixture one spoon at the time, until wanted sweetness (the more cacao you use, the more honey you’ll need, and it will get a bit sweeter once it has cooled as well).
5. Refrigerate in an airtight container.

Just discovered lactosefree milk so happy to know there are other products too. Can't wait to start trying the recipes.Will you be developing a Butter spread alternative?I find whatever I'v found to be really artificial & tasteless. Would any one have any recommendations?Huge Thank you :)
