Preparing the recipe for Nutella liqueur

To start preparing nutellino, a homemade Nutella liqueur, take a large saucepan and pour in the milk, cream and Nutella.
Move the saucepan onto the heat and, using a whisk or a simple wooden spoon, stir gently to melt the Nutella and mix everything together , avoiding the formation of lumps.
Remember to keep the heat low and just before boiling, turn off the heat and let it cool.
Continue stirring from time to time to prevent a sort of film from forming on the surface of the cream. Then as soon as the cream is cold, add the pure food alcohol and mix again to incorporate the alcohol well into the cream.
At this point you can transfer your Nutella liqueur into hermetically sealed glass bottles. We advise you to let the liqueur rest for at least 20 days before serving it.
