How to make a Frangelico recipe copycat! Making Hazelnut liqueur at home is a great idea, you can control the flavour and make just enough, without having a huge bottle left over in your cupboard. People ask where to use Frangelico / hazelnut liqueur... we tell them that this can be subbed in anywhere you would use vanilla extract if you want a boost of hazelnut flavour.Ingredients:1/2 pound (225g) raw hazelnuts with skin (about 2 cups)5 cacao nibs / beans1 cup (250 mL) vodka1/2 cup (125 mL) brandy1 vanilla bean1/4 cup (55g) sugar1/4 cup (60 mL) waterWe use this in our Hazelnut Chiffon Cake With Marshmallow Fluff Icing Recipe: https://youtu.be/PFXKfboa7loMethod:Preheat oven to 325ºF (160ºC).Toast the hazelnuts on a baking sheet in the oven, watching them carefully and stirring them as needed. You want them just lightly browned; this should take about 15 minutes. Don't let them burn because they'll become bitter.Roughly chop toasted hazelnuts and cacao nibs (beans) in a food processor.Combine the chopped hazelnuts and cacao nibs with the vodka, and brandy in a sealable jar. Shake occasionally and let steep at room temperature for 1 week.Split the vanilla pod, scrape out the seeds and place into the jar - chop up the pod and throw it in too.Shake occasionally and let steep at room temperature for a couple of weeks.Sample often. Once desired flavour is reached, strain through a coffee filter, or fine mesh sieveCombine sugar and boiling water in a measuring cup and stir until sugar is dissolved. Let cool, then stir into the hazelnut mixture. Store with your other liqueurs almost indefinitely.#GlenAndFriendsCooking #LeGourmetTV #LeGourmetTVRecipes Glen & Friends Cooking Glen And Friends Cooking #GlenCooking #GlenCooks-~-~~-~~~-~~-~-Please watch: "
