How do I get the hazelnuts to turn into butter?

Place 1 cup of roasted hazelnuts in a food processor and blend for about 4 minutes until they reach a smooth, buttery consistency.

What gives this vegan Nutella its chocolate flavor?

The rich chocolate flavor comes from a combination of cacao powder and melted cacao butter, which also contributes to the spread's creaminess.

Can I adjust the sweetness of this homemade Nutella?

Yes, after blending all ingredients (except the final 1/4 cup hazelnuts) for 2-3 minutes, taste the spread and adjust the amount of coconut sugar if needed.

What is the purpose of the optional raw cacao nibs?

Raw cacao nibs are an optional ingredient that adds a delightful crunch and a more intense, slightly bitter chocolate note to the spread.
