How can you go wrong with sugar, white flour, chocolate and hazelnut? If I ever make these cupcakes again I definitely would use a little less Nutella as I think I went a bit overboard topping the batter, and it made for a messy challenge trying to make attractively swirled tops. Ingredients:
10 tbsp butter, softened |
3/4 cup white sugar |
3 eggs |
1/2 tsp vanilla |
1 3/4 cups sifted flour |
1/4 tsp salt |
2 tsp baking powder |
1/3 cup nutella |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325F. Line 12 muffin tins with paper liners. 2. Cream together butter and sugar. 3. Add in eggs one at a time, until fully incorporated. 4. Add vanilla. 5. Stir in flour, salt and baking powder until batter is uniform and no flour remains. 6. Using a scoop, fill each muffin liner 3/4 full with batter. 7. Top each cake with 1 1/2 tsp Nutella. 8. Swirl Nutella in with a toothpick, making sure to fold a bit of batter up over the nutella. 9. Bake for 20 minutes. 10. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely. 11.
