You'll love this simple, yet decadent recipe for Nutella Chocolate Bites!! They are quick and easy to throw together and a fun recipe for kids to make.
My daughter is an aspiring Chocolatier. She loves to freeze peanut butter and Nutella in my chocolate molds and eat them for dessert. She asked if we could make a new chocolate recipe this weekend and of course, I said "yes"...I don't really need an excuse to make or eat chocolate. This recipe couldn't be simpler. I wanted something easy for her to make and assemble that would also taste delicious. Get your kiddos in the kitchen making tasty things. It makes for wonderful memories and happy bellies. 🙂
Easy Nutella Chocolate Bites
*Recipe is calculated for 16 chocolates, however, the yield depends on the size of your chocolate molds
Ingredients:
1 bag Ghirardelli 60% cacao bittersweet chocolate
¼ cup raw chocolate coconut butter (if you can't find this, just use regular coconut butter)
Nutella (for filling the center) *Almond butter is also an amazing filling!
¼ cup chopped toasted hazelnuts
Directions:
Melt chocolate chips and coconut butter in a glass bowl in the microwave for about 1 ½ minutes (or until completely melted), stopping to stir every 30 seconds. Pour a small amount of the melted mixture in the bottom of a pan of chocolate molds (if you don't have these just use mini cupcake liners) just enough to cover the bottom and sprinkle with a few chopped hazelnuts. Freeze until firm. Then take a small dollop of Nutella (about a teaspoon size) and place it in the middle of each mold. Cover with the chocolate mixture to fill the cup and sprinkle with a few more chopped hazelnuts. Freeze until set. Store in the refrigerator or freezer in an airtight container. Delicious and so easy your kids will love making them!

Thank you for this recipe. It sounds yummy and I will try it out for my daughters birthday party. (I guess your daughter is a choclatier by now, seeing as many years have passed since you posted this)
As a suggestion for future recipes: i live in Switzerland, it would help to know approx. how much chocolate is needed since a "bag" doesnt help me so much... i shall google.

Hi Christina! She's in college now and still loves to bake! 🙂 It's a 10 oz bag of chocolate. Thank you for bringing that to my attention, I'll add that to the recipe directions. Happy New Year!
