Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper
Melt chocolate with coconut oil in 30 second intervals, stirring between each interval
Pour just enough to cover the bottom of the pan and place in the fridge while you make the nougat
Whip your marshmallow fluff & hazelnut spread until smooth (see notes for these two ingredients specifications)
Pour overtop chocolate layer and place in the freezer
Make caramel by combining all ingredients together until smooth and gooey
Pour overtop nougat layer and use a sprayed spatula to spread evenly
Allow to set in the freezer for at least 1 hour
Slice into bars, dip in remaining chocolate, and place on parchment paper, then back in the fridge for a few minutes until the chocolate is firm
Enjoy!
Store in the fridge

Notes

-my homemade marshmallow fluff can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge. Heat for a few seconds to make it gooey again. You can use coconut sugar since you don't need it to be bright white for this recipe -I used artisana organics brand cacao cashew hazelnut spread here. There are several brands of healthier "Nutella" in markets today -I sliced into 10 bars, then halved again to make 20 servings -NOTE your caramel will be gooey / pull apart worthy right out the fridge (will look like last photo right out the fridge). Let come to room temp or warm slightly first.
