Homemade Ferrero Rocher

Homemade Ferrero Rocher • Paleo, grain-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free

These little truffles have always been my all time favorite chocolate. I am crazy for chocolate and hazelnuts together. My challenge this past weekend was to recreate them using real food ingredients and make them taste as good or better than the original. You would think that the original Ferrero Rocher sold in stores are made simply of hazelnuts and chocolate, but that is not the case at all! Check out the list of inflammatory ingredients these innocent looking truffles contain:

Milk chocolate (30%) (Sugar, Cocoa butter, Cocoa mass, Skim milk powder, Anhydrous milkfat, Emulsifier: soy lecithin, Flavouring: Vanillin), Hazelnuts (30%), Sugar, Vegetable oil, Wheat flour,Whey powder, Fat-reduced cocoa powder, Emulsifier (Soy lecithin), Skim milk powder, Raising agent (Sodium bicarbonate), Salt, Flavouring (Vanillin). Total Cocoa solids: 15.8% / in Milk Chocolate: 42%."Contains Milk, Hazelnut, Gluten, Soy". Source → http://ferrerochocolates.com.au/rocher/ingredients/

I thought it would be hard to replicate them at first, but these are super simple to make and there are just a few steps you need to follow. These are the healthiest and most delicious chocolate/hazelnut truffles you'll ever eat. Enjoy and please leave me your feedback and comments below.
