Happy Friday! I made these bad boys for my good friend Shey. Not only is her birthday coming up but she is also moving AND she had a coupon for a free plate of treats from me (I gave out the coupon at a church service auction recently). I wanted these mini cupcakes to be a little bit more fancy then just yellow cake and chocolate frosting when I remembered the neglected jar of Nutella in my pantry! genius! I never really make my frosting with exactness, I just throw it all in and it all seems to work out. This is the closest I can guess on my measurements:
Nutella Frosting
1/4 c. butter (soft)
2 c powder sugar
1/2 c. milk
1 tsp. vanilla
3 heaping spoonfuls of Nutella
Blend all ingredients in a medium size bowl. The amount of Nutella that goes in really depends on your taste- I wanted more of the hazelnut flavor to come out and a darker color but others might not be so inclined so just blend in a spoonful at a time and try it. Enjoy!
I made these cupcakes mini size- bad idea- I can't help but pop one in my mouth every time I enter the kitchen.... I think I have eaten about 15 today haha
Ohhhb my gosh, I am so glad you posted this. I am obsessed with Nutella! Made my day :)
