I constitute this fabulous recipe over at Smitten Kitchen, too it was too thus much fun to brand too fifty-fifty to a greater extent than fun to eat. If y'all similar Nutella, y'all volition LOVE peanutella, only intend of the possibilities!!

Lets see, let me count the ways to taste peanutella: on waffles, on pound cake, on warm scones, inwards a sandwich, amongst s'mores, on waffles, equally a fruit dip and...oh yes...right out of the jar!!!

2 cups shelled, skinned raw peanuts (see note)

Spread the nuts on a cookie sail too roast inwards a 400F oven for 10 minutes, stirring one-half means through for fifty-fifty roasting. NOTE: I couldn't discovery raw peanuts, too thus I used dry out roasted UNSALTED peanuts too roasted them for solely 5 minutes inwards the oven (to convey out to a greater extent than flavor).

Put the nuts inwards a nutrient processor too procedure for v minutes. At start they volition cash inwards one's chips mushy or pasty, but continue processing too the nuts volition start to liquefy. Scrape downwardly the sides of the nutrient processor every in 1 trial inwards a while.

Once the nuts laid about to liquefy, add together the cocoa powder, powdered sugar, tabular array salt too ii tablespoons of peanut oil. Process for closed to other infinitesimal or so. If the mixture seems equally good thick (it volition thicken to a greater extent than inwards the fridge) add together the other tablespoon of peanut oil. Taste the mixture, add together closed to other pinch of tabular array salt if y'all intend it needs it.

That's it!! Store inwards the refrigerator (tightly covered) for upwards to a week. This mixture powerfulness appear a flake sparse at first, but it volition thicken equally it "sets" inwards the fridge.
