Update: Giveaway over! Thanks to all who shared tips, and good luck on the next one.
A few weeks ago I stumbled upon Jif Chocolate Flavored Hazelnut Spread at the grocery store. Bought it, tried it, liked it! And then last week something really nice happened. Jif contacted me (not the peanut butter itself, but rather a human representative) and asked if I’d like to host a giveaway featuring their product. Well, heck yes!
Now I’m supposed to share some tips on how to use it, but I’ve already posted two recipes and feel that’s enough for now. How about if you post tips? In the comment section, share one tip on how to use Jif Chocolate Hazelnut Spread. This Friday I will randomly choose one commenter who will receive a Jif Tasting Kit which includes the following:
• Jif Chocolate Flavored Hazelnut Spread
• Jif Mocha Cappuccino Flavored Hazelnut Spread (I didn’t know about this one!)
• Homemade Marshmallows (Not sure whose house they’re going to make them in, but wow.)
• Graham Crackers (for S’mores)
• Pillsbury Chocolate Fudge Brownie Mix (Yum)
• Folgers Black Silk Coffee (Tried this at Smucker’s. People who love smooth, milder coffee went nuts over this)
• Silver Spoon (?)
• Recipes and Tips (of course!)
• $50 AMEX Gift Card (Woo Hoo!
The value of this tasting kit is $100 and in full disclosure, I also received one.

Pit it on waffles or pancakes!
i would put the chocolate spread on my banana split as a topping
After eating a spoonful straight out of the jar, I would like to try using it in place of peanut butter in a peanut butter brownie recipe. Mmmm!
Smother it on animal crackers…such a tasty and addicting snack
Spread it on Chocolate Graham crackers and top with peanut butter chips!
Spread it between some Nilla wafer cookies. Thanks for the chance to win.
Eat it with a spoon
I warm it slightly and drizzle it over ice cream.
I would have to hide in the pantry with a spoon so I wouldn’t have to share with my kids! Otherwise I’d eat it on toast with bananas.
My husband is Italian…they have the hazelnut chocolate spread there. He scoops a tbs. full of the spread and mix it with his morning coffee.
I think these would be awesome in a stuffed cookie. I made a homemade version of the Pillsbury prize winning PB stuffed cookie a few years ago. Jif hazelnut or mocha would be yummy!

spread it on toast pr crackers
I adore it simple and on toast! Sometimes I live on the edge and add a little honey drizzle to the top. I also love it on my pancakes and waffles!
In the middle of a layer cake
Chocolate brownies with Jif Chocolate Hazelnut Spread frosting!
spread it on some good crusty bread for breakfast….and lunch…and dinner.
I keep picking up both of these jars in the store, debating a purchase or not. My favorite use for Nutella is smeared thickly on whole wheat toast for breakfast. We love JIF peanut butter here, so the hazelnut spread is very, very tempting.
my kids like it on waffles or pancakes.
I would make some shortbread sandwich cookies with the mocha cappuccino spread! And the hazelnut one would be eaten by the spoonful before I could make anything with it
It’s good in yogurt banana smoothies, in place of my usual peanut butter and any sweetener. Also good all by itself with a spoon…
I would to eat it on ice cram with some banana slices ! Yummy!
I haven’t tried it so I would have to steal the tips above and eat it on toast or off the spoon.
Spread on graham crackers and eat plain or make s’mores, or using as topping for plain cookies or bars.
I think a spoon and a comfy chair are all I need . . .
Oh top a warm brownie and vanilla sundae with it
I stir a spoonful into my mediocre hot chocolate to make it a decadent treat!!! I could add the marshmallows also if I should win. Thanks so much.
I haven’t tried the Jif spread yet, but I put the competition on Wasa and eat it for breakfast.
Spread on top of a warm brownie for something extra special.
Mix in a dash of cinnamon and spread on graham crackers. A delicious and not-too decadent treat.
I think it would go great in crepes with some cut-up banana
I think I’d eat it off a spoon. : )
I would like to try it as a filling for french macarons. I’ve baked them once, and have been wanting to try again. I also make a very simple peanut-butter, milk, honey, and banana smoothie, and I bet this spread would be yummy in that too. Here’s the recipe:http://allrecipes.com/recipe/peanut-butter-and-banana-smoothie/
They use soy milk, but regular milk works fine. It’s a great breakfast on the go.
I would mix it with the cream cheese when making cream cheese brownies.
I would make my Grandma’s Jif Peanut Butter Frosting with the Chocolate flavored Hazelnut spread and put in on a white cake.
On warm toast with my morning coffee!
Spread it on crepes (or at our house, Polish pancakes) and top with sliced bananas and whipped cream. Delightful!
Spread it on warm crescent rolls and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
It if weren’t so hot, I would probably bake and make a stuffed cookie or a layer bar of some sort. But since it is hot, just a spoon straight into the jar.
~ Maybe that is what what the giveaway silver spoon is for….plain and unadorned! Yummm
I hate to be boring, but I think I would love this just spread on a nice, toasty, crunchy bagel. I love when nut butters get all melty & delicious!
One silly way I’d love to use it straight up with a spoonful of peanut butter and sprinkles with some Cap’n Crunch cereal!
Picture this – graham cracker – chocolate hazelnut spread – marshmallow creme – another graham cracker. GET IN MY BELLY!
What does it mean “chocolate flavored”?
I would put it on a waffle with a sliced banana on top.
I would love to use this to make some Easy Chocolate Hazelnut Tarts with a baked short crust containng ground hazelnuts, cooled, then filled with the Jif Chocolate Hazelnut Spread and garnished with a whole hazelnut.
I looked evrywhere for this spread since reading some delicious recipes using it, but I can’t find it anywhere!
Thank you
I’m pretty sure all I would need is a spoon.
For a healthier-ish snack, I like to spread a layer of it onto a plain ricecake, and maye top with a few fresh raspberries. Mmmm….
one box of jif hazelnut spread poured into a bowl with 1 pack of heavy cream – microwave for 30 seconds and stir.
mix in a box of crumbed graham crackers, and you have the best and fastest no-bake cookie dough ever.
Yes please, yes please, yes please!! I would smother it all over warm toast because melty goodness is perfection on a plate!
On toast!
Use it to fill thumbprint, spritz or sandwich cookies. Also as a filling for cupcakes.
looks like it would be yummy spread on sugar cookie dough and rolled up and sliced for pinwheel cookies
I think I would use it in a homemade ice cream. Maybe as a swirl in vanilla or make a chocolate hazelnut ice cream. Yum.
