Preparation
How to prepare the homemade Ferrero Rocher recipe
Start by placing the wafers in a food processor and blending them into a flour. Transfer them into a bowl and add half the chopped hazelnuts , mixing quickly.
Then add the Nutella and mix with a spoon to form a firm mixture, easily workable even with your hands. Wet your hands and form balls about the size of a walnut.
Insert a toasted hazelnut in the center (here is our guide on how to toast hazelnuts ) and close tightly, rolling the mixture between your hands. As they are ready, place them on a plate. Transfer the balls to the refrigerator for half an hour.
Then melt the milk chocolate in a bain-marie (in a small pan or in the microwave). Dip the now firm balls one by one in the melted chocolate and then in the remaining chopped hazelnuts . Put the chocolates back on the plate and then back in the refrigerator.
Serve them by placing them inside paper cups or wrapping them individually in golden paper.
