Soooo Yummy! I was craving baking and nutella, so here we go: Nutella Swirl Muffins! Why not put the frosting on the inside?! It makes every bite super moist and delicious! These muffins are basically my yellow cake recipe with nutella mixed in. So easy!
Nutella Swirl Muffins
Makes 2 dozen or so : )
What you'll need:
2 3/4 cups cake flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 tsp. baking powder
3/4 tsp. salt
12 Tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature
3/4 cup milk, room temperature
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
4 eggs, room temperature
about a half jar of nutella or chocolate hazelnut spread
What you'll do:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Fill the cupcake pans with cupcake liners.
Sift the cake flour, sugar, baking powder and salt into a large bowl, or kitchen aid mixer bowl. Cut the butter into 1/2 inch cubes and mix them into the flour mixture on low speed. The mix should be lumpy. Add the milk and the vanilla extract. Mix on medium for another minute. Add the eggs one at a time and mixing in between each addition. Pour the batter into the cupcake pan. Drop 1 tbsp. into each muffin in 3 places.
Take a knife or a toothpick and swirl the nutella in.
Bake for 15-20 minutes. These are best enjoyed warm : )
I mean, you just love to make me salivate.. don’t you!? And look at all this energy you have! How do you prepare, cook, and clean it all up everyday!?
I can never get enough nutella! These look so freaking good!
My daughter was peer pressuring me to buy nutella the other day at the grocery. I said no unless she could find a recipe to use it in…and now I’ve found one and I think I will go ahead and buy it to make these!
