Ingredients

  • ¼ cup hazelnuts
  • 3 tablespoons butter, chilled

Method

Toast nuts in 350-degree oven (or toaster oven for this small amount) 15 minutes. Transfer to a coarse-meshed sieve and rub vigorously (protect your hand with a cloth) to remove husks. Rub stubborn nuts together or against the mesh to scrape off most skin. Cool completely. Combine cleaned nuts and butter in processor and whirl to desired texture, scraping down sides of container a few times. Fo
