Ingredients:

1. 200g of whole hazelnuts
2. 200g of milk chocolate
3. 100g of dark chocolate
4. 150g of Nutella or hazelnut spread
5. 100g of crushed hazelnuts
6. 200g of chocolate hazelnut wafer biscuits
7. A pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Roasting the Hazelnuts:

• Begin by roasting your whole hazelnuts in an oven preheated to 180°C (350°F) for 10-12 minutes until they turn golden brown and fragrant.
• Rub the roasted hazelnuts in a clean kitchen towel to remove their skins. It's alright if some skin remains.

2. Making the Hazelnut Cream:

• Melt 100g of milk chocolate and 100g of dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl over simmering water (double boiler).
• Once melted, stir in the Nutella or hazelnut spread until you have a smooth hazelnut cream.
• Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor.
• Let the hazelnut cream cool and thicken.

3. Assembling the Rocher:

• Take one whole roasted hazelnut and coat it with a generous amount of the hazelnut cream.
• Then, carefully wrap the hazelnut cream-coated hazelnut with a layer of crushed hazelnuts.
• Repeat this process until all your hazelnuts are encased in hazelnut cream and crushed hazelnuts.

4. Creating the Outer Shell:

• Melt the remaining milk chocolate in a heatproof bowl over simmering water.
• Once melted, dip each hazelnut ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated.
• Place the coated hazelnut balls on a tray lined with parchment paper.
• Quickly press a chocolate hazelnut wafer biscuit on top of each coated hazelnut ball while the chocolate is still warm.

5. Final Touch:

• Drizzle some melted dark chocolate over the top of each Ferrero Rocher for an authentic look.
• Allow them to cool and set in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

6. Enjoy the Homemade Ferrero Rocher:

• Once set, your Homemade Ferrero Rocher chocolates are ready to be savored. Delight in their luxurious layers of flavor and texture.
