Nutella Cupcakes Recipe

Nutella lovers out there, this is for you! Here’s my Nutella Cupcakes Recipe, filled with the good stuff with Nutella frosting.

1. Preheat the oven to 180c. Then pour the Butter and Caster Sugar into a mixing bowl – cream together.
2. Sieve the Self Raising Flour and Cocoa Powder into the bowl then crack in the Eggs. Thoroughly combine the ingredients together.
3. Place 10 cupcake cases into a cake tin and evenly distribute the cake mixture among them.
4. Place into the oven for 15-20 minutes until the cakes have just started to brown on top.
5. Leave to cool thoroughly, then using an apple corer, remove the centre of each bun – being sure not to go all the way to the bottom.
6. For each cupcake, place Nutella into the centre of each bun then place the top of the core you removed earlier back on top of the cupcake.
7. Finally, ice the buns using 1 part Icing Sugar to 1 part Nutella (with a dash of water) to make the icing.
8. Spread over the top of each cupcake then leave to set in the fridge, and enjoy.
