Do you like Ferrero Rosher? If you do, you are not alone. Ferrero Rosher is one of the most popular desserts/candies in the world. This recipe is the healthier version of Ferrero Rosher. If you not familiar with Ferrero Rosher, this is basically chocolate hazelnut truffles. In my recipe of homemade Ferrero Rosher, instead of sugar and other unhealthy ingredients, I used dated.

INGREDIENTS FOR YIELDS

For the filling:

  • 160g Almonds/hazelnuts
  • 200g Medjool dates, pitted
  • 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
  • Whole Hazelnuts
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon Coconut oil

For the coating:

  • 200g Dark chocolate/milk chocolate
  • 20g Hazelnuts, crushed
DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Spread 260g hazelnuts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast them in the oven for about 7-8 minutes, until slightly browned and the skins are blistered a little. Wrap the hazelnuts in a kitchen towel and rub vigorously to remove as much loose skin as possible. Let cool completely.
  3. Place 160g of nuts in the food processor and process for 20-30 seconds, until crumbly.
  4. Add pitted dates, cocoa powder, coconut oil, vanilla extract and salt. Process until combined and sticky.
  5. Take one whole hazelnut, wrap it with the date mixture, then squash the mixture between your hands to form balls. Set aside and place in the fridge while making the coating.
  6. Chop the chocolate and place in a heat proof bowl. Set the bowl over a pot with simmering water (double boiler) and melt the chocolate. Remove from heat, add crushed hazelnuts and mix.
  7. Dip each ball in the melted chocolate and on a parchment paper to set.
  8. Keep in the fridge until ready to serve.

    Google it This would be definitely healthier than real Ferrer Roche due to the Nutella ect . Sugar, chocolate - at least with this you can control how much sugar you add , along with the type . I use monk fruit sugar which is 10x healthier & better for you .

    a short question please.....in your ingredient section with the post "200g Dark chocolate/milk chocolate" does this mean that we should choose either dark or milk? OR does it mean to divide the amount of chocolate 1/2 and /12 of each and combine? Thank you.

    I Love Ferrero Rocher chocolates and would be absolutely tickled to have the recipe so I could make my own. Looking forward to receiving it so I can make my own as Christmas gifts for next year. Thank you.
