When I bought the jar of Nutella last weekend I made a vow (yes I did) that part of the Nutella will be made into cupcakes. I’ve always planned to do that whenever I buy one but it never gets that far. Darn those nutella sandwiches and occasional spoon licking. Well, I finally made self-frosting nutella cupcakes and golly they were so beautiful and delicious.
This self-frosting nutella cupcakes recipe was adapted from Connie of Pinoycook which she got from Baking Bites.
INGREDIENTS:
10 tbsp butter, softened
3/4 cup white sugar
3 eggs
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 3/4 cups sifted all purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup Nutella
Preheat the oven to 325°. Lined muffin pans with muffin/cupcake paper liners
Using a mixer, cream butter and sugar together
Do this until light and creamy. About 2 minutes or so.
Add one egg at a time.
Beat the mixture after each egg.
Add vanilla, then the flour, baking powder and salt. Continue to mix everything together until well incorporated.
The mixture would be sort of lumpy like it would be hard to pour. Don’t worry, that’s how it should be. As long as it’s not hard as rocks of course.
Use an ice cream scooper to fill up the cups with the batter. About 3/4 full.
Top each batter with 1/2 tsp of nutella.
Use a toothpick or a satay skewer to swirl the nutella in with the batter.
Make sure a little bit of the batter comes on top. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes.
Serve cool or a slightly warm.
Now stop staring and go make your own

@jessica, sounds good. glad you like ‘em
I found the dough too dry & the Nutella does’t swirl because it is too thick. I added 125 ml Milk to the dough.
I added 3 Tbs milk to 3 Tbs Nutella and stirred until completely incorporated, making a softer Nutella & could therefore swirl more easily.
Turned out a whole lot better.
Mixture made 30 cupcakes
Wow, that looks absolutely delicious! Great post, you did such a nice job presenting the pictures too…I am definitely going to have to try that recipe this weekend! Thanks!
Just made these! So easy to do! I did have to add a little bit of milk though, and had to leave them about 5-10 minutes longer because I made them to be a bit bigger than I think they were supposed to be. Thanks so much for this though!
Wow. I just made these and they are the fluffiest, most delicious cupcakes I have ever made. Go. bake. now.
Nutella is a candy bar in a jar!
i wanna make this but how long does it take and how many does it make?
@Emilia, as indicated in this post, it bakes 20 minutes, and the 2nd to the last picture shows 12 cupcakes.
Try using about 1/4 cup vanilla coffee syrup instead of milk. You can add it to any cake batter for extra moisture! Thanks for the yummy recipe!!!!
When I first made these, they were very very dry. I added a bit of milk but it didn’t really do the job. So, I took an individual serving size of motts apple sauce and added it into the mix. Now that really did the job, my cupcakes are moist and delicious
