Chocolate Hazelnut Smoothie and more recipes
Chocolate Hazelnut smoothie
Ingredients You’ll Need
To make this hazelnut smoothie, you’ll need just 4 simple ingredients:
Hazelnuts (or hazelnut butter)
Medjool dates
Cacao powder
Vanilla extract
How to Make It
To make this Nutella-inspired smoothie, blend together the hazelnuts, dates, cacao powder, vanilla, and water. There’s no need to remove the papery skins from the hazelnuts, unless you want to.
Blend until you can longer see any large pieces of
dates or hazelnuts. Stop and scrape down the blender, as needed.
Once it’s smooth, you can add in some ice and blend again, until it has a
slushy texture.
It reminds me of a milkshake, only without the milk. Start with less ice, and add more to taste. The more ice you add, the more diluted the flavor will be.
Adding more ice also adds bulk to this smoothie, so it will determine how full your glass will be.
Enjoy it.

Spread frosting on the top and sides of the cake, making sure to smooth out the surface. Garnish with chopped hazelnuts or chocolate shavings.
