"Heavenly Nutella Cupcakes: A Choco-Hazelnut Delight!" 🍫🧁

The Ultimate Nutella Cupcake Recipe: A Rich and Decadent Treat



When it comes to desserts, chocolate is always a top favorite. But if you're looking to elevate your baking game, why not try something a little more indulgent? Enter Nutella cupcakes—rich, nutty, and irresistibly delicious. Infused with the unique flavor of hazelnuts, these cupcakes bring a perfect balance of chocolatey goodness and creamy Nutella filling. Let’s dive into the recipe!

Ingredients:

For 12 medium-sized or 10 large cupcakes, you will need:

  • 50g Nutella
  • 50g Hazelnuts
  • 120g Sugar
  • 100g Flour
  • 2 Large Eggs (at room temperature)
  • 110g Butter
  • 45g Cocoa Powder

Instructions:

Step 1: Roast the Hazelnuts

Preheat your oven to 110°C (230°F) and roast the hazelnuts for 12 minutes until they turn golden brown. Alternatively, you can roast them in a pan over low heat. Once cooled, blend them into a coarse powder.

Step 2: Prepare the Batter

  1. In a mixing bowl, crack the 2 large eggs and whisk them until frothy. You can use a hand mixer for this step.
  2. Gradually add sugar and continue whisking until the mixture is light and aerated.
  3. Add butter and whisk for a few more minutes until well combined.

Step 3: Incorporate Dry Ingredients

  1. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and cocoa powder.
  2. Slowly fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula—avoid overmixing.
  3. Add the blended hazelnut powder and gently fold until the batter is smooth.

Step 4: Fill the Cupcake Molds

  1. Pour the batter into cupcake molds, filling each ¾ full.
  2. Tap the mold gently on the counter to release any trapped air bubbles.

Step 5: Bake the Cupcakes

  1. Preheat your oven to 170°C (338°F).
  2. Bake for 22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  3. Let the cupcakes cool completely before moving to the next step.

Nutella Filling & Frosting:

Step 6: Fill with Nutella

  1. Once the cupcakes have cooled, create a small hole in the center of each cupcake.
  2. Fill each hole with Nutella for a gooey, rich surprise.
  3. (Optional) Add a roasted hazelnut inside each cupcake for an extra crunch.

Step 7: Prepare the Frosting

  1. Whip some heavy cream with a little sugar until soft peaks form.
  2. Add a spoonful of Nutella to the whipped cream and mix gently.
  3. Pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes using a piping bag.
  4. Garnish with a dusting of cocoa powder and a whole hazelnut on top.

Enjoy Your Nutella Cupcakes!

Your decadent Nutella cupcakes are now ready to be enjoyed. Perfect for special occasions or as an indulgent treat, these cupcakes are bound to impress!
