INGREDIENTS:
Grind the hazelnuts (filberts) to a fine powder in a vitamix dry jug, seed grinder or twin gear juicer/champion. Transfer to a blender and add the chocolate and agave. Blend until well mixed. Add a little water if you want it runnier.
I would put this in the raw WEIGHT GAIN department of recipes! But it is still a healthier option for kids and transitioners or when you just get the urge for chocolate! Hazelnuts contain a high concentration of vitamin E which prevents oxidation of the polyunsaturated fats, and it is also one of the few nuts which contain vitamin A, which is a natural antioxidant and has cancer-preventing properties. Hazelnuts also contain B-group vitamins particularly vitamin B5 and B6 and are an excellent source of minerals, particularly the minerals manganese, selenium, copper and zinc. |
