Easy to make and incredibly versatile, it can be enjoyed on its own, as a mixer for cocktails, or even drizzled over desserts. Let’s walk you through the steps to create this deliciously sweet treat.
Ingredients
To create this irresistible Nutella liqueur, you will need:
1 cup Nutella (or any hazelnut chocolate spread)
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup vodka (choose a smooth, high-quality vodka)
1/4 cup milk (you can substitute with almond or oat milk for a dairy-free option)
1/4 cup sugar (optional, depending on your sweetness preference)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for added depth of flavor)
Instructions
Combine the Nutella and Cream
In a saucepan, add the Nutella and heavy cream. Place the saucepan over low to medium heat and stir constantly until the Nutella fully melts into the cream, creating a smooth, creamy mixture. This should only take a few minutes. Be careful not to let it boil.
Add the Milk and Sugar
Once the Nutella is melted, stir in the milk. You can adjust the amount of milk based on how thick or creamy you want your liqueur to be. If you’d like a sweeter liqueur, add sugar at this stage and stir until completely dissolved.
Cool the Mixture
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature. This step is important because it allows the flavors to meld together and ensures the vodka doesn’t evaporate when added.
