Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the hazelnuts out on small baking sheet or in an ovenproof skillet and toast them in the oven until they are a deep toasty brown, about 15 minutes. Remove the hazelnuts from the oven and set aside to cool completely.Melt the chocolate in a heatproof medium bowl set over a pot of simmering water over medium-low heat, stirring often.If serving the Gianduia immediately, place your bread in a 350 degrees F oven for 12 minutes.
- Grind the hazelnuts with the sugar in a food processor to a fairly smooth, buttery paste.
- Once the chocolate is completely melted, remove it from the heat and whisk in the cream and butter. Stir in the ground hazelnuts. The gianduia will thicken and become soft and peanut butter-like as it cools. Pour the mixture into small jars, or store in a container with a tight-fitting lid.
- Serve the gianduia with rustic slices of buttered toast.
GIANDUJA
These layered squares are more "sophisticated" than my usual lineup of Christmas candy, but they're also very popular. People love the pairing of chocolate and hazelnuts. -Virginia Sauer, Wantagh, New York

GIANDUJA CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE
This is an unusual cheesecake that is absolutely wonderful. If you're going all out, track down real gianduja chocolate and mascarpone cheese. If that seems too expensive, then use semi-sweet chocolate and a good cream cheese, but don't forget the hazelnut liqueur! It's delicious and decadent. Serve in small pieces.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C.) Butter a 9 inch springform pan. Lay one sheet of phyllo dough in the pan. Tuck it into the pan and let the edges overhang the rim. Brush with butter and layer a second sheet of phyllo. Butter this sheet. Continue until you have used all four sheets of phyllo. End with butter. Use as little butter as possible. Cover the phyllo-filled pan with a damp cloth.
- In the top of a double boiler, heat gianduia chocolate and unsweetened chocolate, stirring occasionally, until chocolate is melted and smooth. Remove from heat and allow to cool to lukewarm.
- In a large bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese until smooth. When no lumps remain, begin to beat in the sugar a little at a time. Beat in the egg yolks one at a time incorporating each yolk completely before adding the next. Finally beat in the melted and cooled chocolates and the liqueur.
- Beat the egg whites until they just get stiff. Do not over beat. Fold 1/3 of the egg whites into the cheese mixture, then quickly fold in the remaining whites until no streaks remain. Be careful not to deflate the whites as much as possible. Pour the filling into the phyllo-lined pan. Tuck the edges of the phyllo into the pan making a bit of a rim.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes, or until filling is set. It will still seem a little loose in the center. When the cake appears done, turn off the oven, prop open the oven door with a wooden spoon and let the cake remain in the oven for another hour. Then place the cake in the refrigerator until completely chilled.

Steps:
- Lightly oil an 8-inch square baking pan and line with plastic wrap, allowing a 2-inch overhang.
- Toast and skin hazelnuts. In a food processor pulse hazelnuts until finely chopped, about 30 seconds. Chop chocolates into 1/4-inch pieces, reserving 1 slightly mounded tablespoon bittersweet chocolate for tempering. In a double boiler or a metal pan set over a saucepan of barely simmering water melt three fourths of chocolate, stirring until smooth. Remove top of double boiler or bowl from heat and add remaining chocolate in 2 or 3 batches, stirring until smooth and allowing each batch to melt before adding next.
- When all of chocolate is melted, test its temperature: Put a dab of chocolate on the inside of your lower lip; it should be slightly cooler than your body temperature. If chocolate is too warm, add reserved chocolate, stirring until smooth.
- Stir hazelnuts and hazelnut butter into chocolate until combined well and spread mixture in pan. Chill confection, covered with plastic wrap, until firm, at least 2 hours. Lift confection out of pan and peel off plastic wrap. On a cutting board with a sharp large knife cut confection lengthwise into 1-inch strips and cut strips crosswise into 1-inch squares. Chocolates keep, covered and chilled, 1 month.

CHOCOLATE GIANDUIA MARTINI
A nice twist on the typical chocolate martini. This drink replaces the chocolate liqueur which is normally an ingredient in chocolate martinis with gianduia liqueur. The gianduia liqueur I used was imported from Italy and it contains chocolate and hazelnut flavoring, cream, and grappa. Also, you may want to keep the vodka in the fridge or freezer to ensure an ideal temperature.

- In either a coffee blender, spice blender, small food processor or blender add the skinned nuts and blend until you have a very fine powder, the more fine the better.
- Add in the oil and powdered sugar and blend thoroughly.
- Melt the chocolate either in a double boiler, or a microwave at 50% power for 1 minute, stirring and remicrowaving for 30 seconds at a time until it is completely melted.

TORTA ALLA GIANDUIA (CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT CAKE)
This is from Nigella Lawson's book, How to be a Domestic Goddess. It's quite easy to make, yet looks drop-dead impressive. Definately a cake that will cheer the soul of any adult. I used my KitchenAide mixer, so if you aren't using one, your prep time may be a bit longer.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
- Prepare a 9-inch springform pan: grease and line with parchment or wax paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs whites and salt until stiff but not dry (this means that they will hold their peaks, yet still appear glossy and smooth).
- In a separate bowl, beat the butter and Nutella together, then add Frangelico (or what you have chosen to use), egg yolks, and ground hazelnuts.
- Fold in the cooled, melted chocolate, then lighten the mixture with a dollop of egg white, which you can beat in as roughly as you want, before gently folding the rest of them in a third at a time.
- Pour into the prepared pan and cook for 40 minutes or until the cake's beginning to come away at the sides, then let cool on rack.
- Toast the hazelnuts in a dry frying pan until the aroma wafts upward and the nuts are golden brown in parts: keep shaking the pan so they don't burn on one side and stay too pallid on others.
- Transfer to a plate and let cool.
- This is imperative: if they go on the ganache while hot, it'll turn oily (believe me I speak from experience).
- In a heavy-bottomed sauce pan, add the cream, liquer or water, and chopped chocolate and heat gently.
- Once the chocolate's melted, take the pan off the heat and whisk until it reaches the right consistency to ice just the top of the cake.
- Unmold the cooled cake carefully, leaving it on the base as it will be too difficult to get such a damp cake off in one piece.
- Ice the top with the chocolate icing, and dot thickly with the whole, toasted hazelnuts.
- If you have used Frangelico, put shot glasses on the table and serve it with the cake.
