Utensils Used
| 1. Stir milk chocolate in medium metal bowl set over saucepan of barely simmering water until melted and smooth. | 2. The key to this step is that you do not allow the bottom of the metal bowl to touch water. | 3. Remove bowl from the heated water bath and place on the counter on a towel. | 4. Whisk in Nutella and chopped hazelnuts. | 5. Stir bittersweet chocolate in another medium metal bowl set over saucepan of barely simmering water until chocolate melts. | 6. Remove bowl from the heated water bath and place on the counter on a towel. | 7. Using 1-inch-wide pastry brush, coat insides of foil candy cups with just enough chocolate to cover (it's just like painting!). | 8. Rewarm chocolate as necessary to maintain approximately 110 degree F temperature, which is optimal for this step. | 9. Place cups on baking sheet. | 10. Chill until chocolate is firm, about 15 minutes. | 11. Spoon enough hazelnut mixture into center of each chocolate cup to fill to within 1/8 inch of top (about 1 heaping teaspoonful in each cup). | 12. Refrigerate until filling sets, about 15 minutes. | 13. Rewarm remaining melted bittersweet chocolate in bowl set over barely simmering water to 110°F. | 14. Spoon enough chocolate over filling to cover and to fill cups completely. | 15. Immediately top each cup with a whole hazelnut. | 16. Refrigerate cups until firm, about 20 minutes. | 17. (Can be made 2 weeks ahead; refrigerate in single layer in airtight container.) Let stand 15 minutes at room temperature before serving. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
