INSTRUCTIONS
Roast whole hazelnuts in the oven to bring out the flavor. Remove the skins
and chop. Set aside. Melt chocolate in microwave or over double boiler.
Make a simple syrup by stirring together 3 tablespoons water, 1 cup sugar,
and 2 teaspoons vanilla in a heavy saucepan. Add to chocolate and bring
just to a boil over low heat. Remove saucepan from heat and fold in 8
ounces cream cheese, 1/3 cup hazelnut liqueur or extract, and 1 cup
hazelnuts. Set aside to cool. Whip 1 pint heavy whipping cream, 1/4 cup
sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla until stiff. Fold the cooled chocolate
mixture and all but a few tablespoons of the whipped cream mixture gently
together, being careful not to over-mix. Pour into individual serving cups.
Garnish with remaining whipped cream and coarsely chopped hazelnuts.
