Description

Imagine sinking your teeth into a treat that's both decadent and nourishing – these hazelnut delights are precisely that. They present a harmonious blend of dessert-like satisfaction and wholesome ingredients, making them a guilt-free pleasure any time of day. At the heart of these little bites lies the rich, earthy flavor of raw hazelnuts.

Blended into a coarse, delightful paste, they form the foundation of the recipe, providing both texture and a wealth of healthy fats. The addition of cocoa powder introduces a deep, chocolatey note that complements the hazelnut beautifully, creating a flavor profile reminiscent of classic hazelnut-chocolate spreads. A touch of sweetener enhances the natural flavors, bringing the ingredients into perfect balance.

The beauty of these treats lies in their simplicity. The mixture easily comes together and can be shaped into convenient, bite-sized portions. These are perfect to have on hand when you need a quick pick-me-up or a satisfying treat.

Their high fat content makes them particularly appealing when you're looking for sustained energy, keeping you feeling full and focused. Inspired by the traditional Italian confection, gianduja, these offer a healthier take on the beloved hazelnut and chocolate combination. The result is a firm yet yielding texture that melts in your mouth, releasing a burst of nutty, chocolatey goodness.

For an even more indulgent experience, try chilling or freezing these little bites. The cool temperature intensifies the flavors and transforms them into a truffle-like experience. A simple coating of melted chocolate, made with your choice of chocolate and coconut oil, elevates them to another level of decadence.

The contrast between the smooth chocolate and the slightly chunky hazelnut filling is simply divine. These hazelnut treats are more than just a sweet snack; they are a celebration of flavor and texture, offering a delightful way to enjoy the goodness of simple, wholesome ingredients. Whether you're seeking a healthy indulgence or a satisfying energy boost, these are sure to please.

Instructions

    1.
    Place hazelnuts in a food processor or high-quality blender and blend at high speed. Scrape down the sides as needed. Continue blending until the hazelnuts are crushed and begin to release their oils. Add room temperature coconut oil, cocoa powder, salt, liquid stevia, and vanilla extract to the hazelnuts. Blend until you achieve a paste with small lumps of hazelnuts. Transfer the mixture to a small bowl or container and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
    2.
    After 30 minutes, the hazelnut mixture should be firmer. Line a sheet tray with parchment paper. Scoop the hazelnut spread into 2-tablespoon portions and roll each portion into a ball. The heat from your hands will melt the fat quickly, so using a small metal scoop or #40 pastry scoop can help portion the fat bombs efficiently.
    3.
    Arrange the fat bombs on the parchment paper and place them in the refrigerator or freezer to set. Allow a minimum of 60 minutes in the refrigerator for them to fully set. You can freeze them for an extra cold treat. Optionally, sprinkle unsweetened cocoa powder on the fat bombs for an additional hint of chocolate.
