Nutella Cupcakes

If you’re a nutella-lover like me, I don’t think you need any inspiration to try these AMAZING cupcakes. In the first bite into the chocolate cupcake, there is even a little surprise of pure nutella in the middle. There’s nothing like taking two desserts that were amazing by itself, and marrying them together. It’s just… perfect <3 thanks to yourcupofcake.com

Ingredients

• Cupcakes:
• 1 box Devil's Food Cake Mix
• 3 eggs
• 1/2 cup oil
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup sour cream
• 24 tsp Nutella (1 per cupcake)
• Nutella Buttercream
• 3/4 cup Nutella
• 1/4 cup of softened butter
• 1 1/2-2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 3-4 tbsp heavy whipping cream

Method

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350*F and line 24 muffin tins.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk eggs, oil, milk, water, and vanilla. Sift in the cake mix and stir in sour cream.

Step 3

*optional* fill cupcake liners 3/4 full of batter and place a teaspoon of nutella in each one and swirl with a toothpick. (I made these cupcakes with and without nutella- and just in case you run out of nutella while baking, it's still good)

Step 4

Bake for 14-18 minutes.

Step 5

*Depending on how much buttercream you want on each cupcake, doubling the amount of buttercream is a good idea* Beat nutella and butter for 5 minutes in an electric mixer and add vanilla. Alternate adding powdered sugar and whipping cream. Taste and frost cupcakes.
