Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Nutella
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 16 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
  • ½ cup white chocolate*
  • ½ cup hazelnuts toasted and chopped

Instructions
 

  • Line a large baking sheet with wax or parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer (or with a large bowl and a hand mixer) mix the Nutella and butter together. Add the powdered sugar, milk, vanilla and salt and mix until smooth. Set aside
  • Place the semi-sweet chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for one minute. Remove from the microwave, stir, and return to the microwave for another 30 seconds until completely smooth.
  • Pour half of the melted chocolate into lined baking sheet and spread out evenly with a rubber or offset spatula. Allow chocolate to set in the refrigerator for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave until smooth.
  • Once set, spoon Nutella filling onto chocolate and spread evenly. Top with remaining semi-sweet chocolate and spread. Sprinkle with the chopped hazelnuts, then drizzle with the white chocolate.
  • Refrigerate for 20 minutes to allow chocolate to set up. Peel the bark off of the wax or parchment paper and cut into pieces with a knife. Bark will stay fresh in and airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Notes

* If using white chocolate chips, add about 1/2 teaspoon of vegetable oil while melting. This will thin it out a little, so that it'll be easier to drizzle over the bark.
Tip: Instead of putting the finished bark in the refrigerator, I put it in the freezer for about an hour to let it harden up fully. This allowed me to cut the bark more cleanly.
