Nutella Self-frosting Cupcakes Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Girlieerin / All my dishes 2 years, 3 months ago 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

Preheat oven to 325F. Line 12 muffin tins with paper liners.

Cream together butter and sugar.

Add in eggs one at a time, until fully incorporated.

Add vanilla.

Stir in flour, salt and baking powder until batter is uniform and no flour remains.

Using a scoop, fill each muffin liner 3/4 full with batter.

Top each cake with 1 1/2 tsp Nutella.

Swirl Nutella in with a toothpick, making sure to fold a bit of batter up over the nutella.

Bake for 20 minutes.

Remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
