These easy, four-ingredient Nutella Cupcakes did the trick! The cupcakes themselves actually contain only three ingredients: Nutella, eggs, and flour. How nice and simple is that? It’s hard to believe, but from that short list of ingredients comes a cupcake that’s fudgy, moist, and packed with chocolate-hazelnut flavor.
The thick, shiny frosting is a mix of Nutella and cream cheese–that’s where the fourth ingredient comes in!
Four-Ingredient Nutella Cupcakes (https://www.ohnuts.com/blog/nutella-cupcakes/)
yield: About 28 miniature cupcakes
Before you begin, preheat the oven to 350 F. Line your miniature cupcake pans with 28 paper liners or regular 12 cupcake pans
Whisk the eggs together in a large bowl until they’re broken up.
Add 1 1/2 cups of Nutella to the eggs in the bowl, reserving the remaining 1 cup of Nutella for the frosting. Whisk the Nutella and eggs together–at first it will be difficult to combine them…
Add the all-purpose flour to the bowl, and gently stir it in with a spatula.
Stir just until the last streaks of flour disappear. Don’t stir too much and overwork the batter, or else your cupcakes will be tough!
Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling each one about 2/3rds full.
Bake the cupcakes at 350 F for about 13-15 minutes, until the tops are dry, puffed, and a little cracked. They should spring back when pressed lightly with your fingertips. Allow them to cool at room temperature on a wire rack while you prepare the easy (two-ingredient!) frosting.
In a mixing bowl, combine the remaining 1 cup of Nutella and the cream cheese.
Beat them together on medium speed with the paddle attachment until your frosting is light and fluffy. I think this is the perfect combination of sweet and tangy, but you might want to give it a taste and see if it’s sweet enough for you. If not, add a little powdered sugar and beat it in until the frosting is smooth.
Top the cooled cupcakes with a swirl of frosting. For the crowning touch, finish each one off with one of these beautiful Gold Metallic Amorini Hearts! They’re a crunchy, chocolate-based heart with a candy shell and a gorgeous bright gold color.
