Nutella Substitute

Nutella, the popular hazelnut-cocoa spread, contains cow milk, tons of sugar, and artificial vanilla. Here's an easy vegan alternative, if you can find/make hazelnut flour:

.75 cup hazelnut flour, as finely ground as possible
.25 cups cocoa, Scharffen Berger or some other good sort (not Hershey's, Baker's)
.25 cups oil: peanut, walnut, safflower or corn
2 T sugar, melted or in small crystals
1 t authentic vanilla, for the sake of Madagascar

Mix, then spread on breads, pancakes, cookies, candy bars, and everything else.
