Homemade Nutella Recipe
Homemade Nutella – chocolate, cream, butter and hazelnuts. SO easy! Tastes better than the original! Makes a great holiday gift!
I always make a little homemade something for all my friends and neighbors for Christmas. This year I am giving everyone Homemade Nutella. It is very easy to make and tastes better than the original!
I made sure to save a jar for ourselves. We love it on graham crackers, apples or a spoon! For gift giving I packaged it in small jars with a festive label. I can’t wait to give these to all our friends and neighbors this year!
Here is what I used to package my Homemade Nutella for gifts.
The jars are the Small Kilner jars from Pacific Merchants. You can order them here: http://www.pacificmerchants.com/kilner/kilner-preserve-jar-025-liter-9-fl-oz.html
The labels are from Lia Griffith. You can download them for free here:
