Doesn't it look absolutely decadent? The chocolate spread is a yummy combination of hazelnuts, cocoa powder, maple syrup which is a great alternative to sugar, dates, almond milk, coconut oil and vanilla extract. All one needs to do is blend the hazelnuts and combine them with the rest of the ingredients. At the end of the video, Shilpa also mentions the benefits of the ingredients used. For instance, hazelnut has healthy fats and is a great source of dietary fibre and protein, and so is almond milk.

"So, I tried out this delicious home-made Healthy Choco-spread! It's completely devoid of the large amounts of refined sugar found in the spreads available in the market.
