Vegan Chocolate Hazelnut Spread

If you know me, you know that Nutella was one of my staple foods before going plant-based. I wasn’t sure how I was going to hold up without it! But this healthier and dairy-free version has been an absolute game changer. The chickpea base makes it filling and protein packed. If you’re a Nutella fan like me, give this a try!
